🥜 Joe Wicks Granola Ingredients
- 4 cups old-fashioned rolled oats (use certified gluten-free oats for gluten-free granola)
- 1 ½ cup raw nuts and/or seeds (I used 1 cup pecans and ½ cup pepitas)
- 1 teaspoon fine-grain sea salt (if you’re using standard table salt, scale back to ¾ teaspoon)
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ cup melted coconut oil or olive oil
- ½ cup maple syrup or honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ⅔ cup dried fruit, chopped if large (I used dried cranberries)
- Totally optional additional mix-ins: ½ cup chocolate chips or coconut flakes
🥮 How To Make Joe Wicks Granola
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine the oats, nuts or seeds, salt, and cinnamon in a big bowl. Mix by stirring.
- Put the oil, honey, maple syrup, or both in the bowl. Add the nuts and oats and mix well until each one is lightly covered. When the pan is ready, pour the granola on top of it and use a big spoon to spread it out evenly.
- Bake for about 21 to 24 minutes, stirring every so often. If you want extra-clumpy granola, press the mixed granola down with a spatula to make a more even layer. As it cools, the granola will get even crispier.
- Leave the granola to cool for at least 45 minutes without touching it. Add the dried fruit on top, along with chocolate chips if you want to. If you want the granola to stay in big chunks, break it up with your hands. If you don’t want it to be too clumpy, stir it around with a spoon.
- The granola can be kept at room temperature for one to two weeks in a container that doesn’t let air in. It can also be kept in the freezer for up to three months in a sealed bag. Because the dried fruit can freeze solid, give it 5 to 10 minutes to warm up before you serve it.
💭 Recipe Tips
- Use certified gluten-free oats if needed.
