Ingredients
5 cups rolled oats, 2 cups raw almonds, 1 cup hulled raw sunflower seeds, 1/4 cup sesame seeds, 1 tbsp ground cinnamon, 1/2 tbsp ground ginger, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 cup unsweetened apple sauce, 1/2 cup unsweetened peach puree, 1/3 cup grape molasses, 1/4 cup agave syrup (vegan alternative to honey), 2 tbsp olive oil.
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. 2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the oats, almonds, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, cinnamon, ginger, and salt. Stir to blend. 3. In a separate bowl, mix the apple sauce, peach puree, grape molasses, agave syrup, and olive oil until well combined. 4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix well, ensuring every oat and nut is lightly coated. 5. Spread the granola evenly on the prepared baking sheet. 6. Bake for 21 to 24 minutes, stirring halfway, until the granola is lightly golden. Press with a spatula for extra-clumpy granola. 7. Let the granola cool completely, undisturbed, for at least 45 minutes. 8. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 1 to 2 weeks, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
