Ingredients

Directions

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

Mix together rolled and quick-cooking oats, pecans, walnuts, almonds, and pepitas in a large bowl until well combined. Spread out evenly on a baking sheet.

Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer to the same large bowl. Reduce oven temperature to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C).

Stir together maple syrup, coconut oil, crystallized ginger, turmeric, ground ginger, cinnamon, salt, cardamom, and pepper in a medium bowl until well combined; pour over oats-nuts mixture and mix thoroughly. Transfer mixture onto the baking sheet.

Bake in the oven for 30 minutes. Turn the oven off and leave granola in the oven for 1 hour.

Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.

Cook’s Note

To make your own crystallized ginger, cut up fresh ginger and place it in a pan with a bit of maple syrup and water. Cook until water and syrup are absorbed and ginger is sticky.
