Prep: 10 min · Cook: 30 min · Total: 40 min · Serves 4

Ingredients

• 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1 cup mixed raw nuts (almonds, walnuts, pecans), roughly chopped
• 1/3 cup pumpkin seeds
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
• 1/3 cup neutral oil (such as coconut or vegetable oil)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup dried cranberries or raisins
• 2 cups plain or vanilla Greek yogurt
• 1 cup sliced fresh strawberries or banana
• to taste Extra honey, for drizzling

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 300°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, combine the oats, nuts, pumpkin seeds, cinnamon, and salt.
3. Warm the honey and oil together in a small saucepan, or in the microwave, until loosened and easy to pour.
4. Stir the honey mixture and vanilla into the dry ingredients until every oat and nut is evenly coated.
5. Spread the mixture in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet, pressing it down slightly to encourage clusters.
6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, stirring gently every 10 minutes, until golden brown and fragrant.
7. Let the granola cool completely on the pan undisturbed, which allows it to crisp up and form clumps.
8. Once cooled, stir in the dried cranberries.
9. To serve, spoon Greek yogurt into bowls, top generously with granola and fresh fruit, and finish with a drizzle of honey.
