Servings: 12 servings
Calories: 305kcal
Ingredients
- 4 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 ½ cups sliced almonds
- ½ cup light brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ cup salted butter, melted
- ⅓ cup honey
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1 egg white
Instructions
- Heat oven to 300 degrees F. Prepare a baking sheet by lining with parchment paper. Move the center rack up a level so it's on the second level from the top.
- Mix the oats, almonds, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt together in a large mixing bowl until combined. In a small, separate bowl, stir the melted butter, honey, vanilla and egg white together, then drizzle over the oat mixture, stirring together until well-combined.
- Transfer the granola mixture to the prepared baking sheet and spread it out in an even layer. If you want large chunks of granola, flatten into an even layer with a spatula, adding pressure so the granola is nice and compact. Bake for 30-35 minutes, rotating the pan once halfway through for even toasting, until golden and crispy and the almonds look lightly toasted.
- Remove from oven and let the granola cool completely before transferring to an airtight container. Keeps for 2 weeks at room temperature.
Notes
You could easily substitute coconut oil or even just vegetable oil for the butter, if you prefer.
Homemade granola lasts for about 2 weeks in an airtight container.
