Homemade Granola with Apple and Pine Nuts
Homemade granola with apple and pine nuts keeps for weeks and makes mornings easier the moment it's done. Carusia's own apple and pine nut notes go straight into the pan here, so the granola is really an extension of the oil's own tasting profile.
Ingredients
- 3 cups rolled oats
- 1/2 cup pine nuts, chopped
- 1/2 cup Carusia
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup dried apple, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 300°F and line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, toss the oats and chopped pine nuts with Carusia, honey, cinnamon, and salt until every piece is evenly coated.
- Spread the mixture out evenly on the prepared pan in a thin, even layer.
- Bake 35 to 40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes to break up clumps and ensure even browning, until deeply golden.
- Stir in the dried apple during the last 5 minutes of baking so it warms through without burning.
- Remove from the oven and let cool completely on the pan without stirring, the granola crisps up as it cools, then break into clusters and store.
