Muesli-Style Granola (aka Granoli)

If granola and muesli had a flavorful lovechild, it would be this recipe — aka granoli. A crunchy not-too-sweet blend of oats, pistachios, and seeds that's baked like granola, but with a looser muesli texture (since there is less sugar and oil). Rosemary and olive oil add savory, maple syrup some sweetness, and ginger gives it some kick.
How To MakeDiet Type: Plant-based
Shopping List
- 1 1/2 cups rolled oats (not quick-cooking oats)
- 1/2 cup pistachios, shelled
- 1/2 cup sunflower seeds
- 33333333/100000000 cup pumpkin seeds
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup currants (Note 1)
- 2 tablespoons flax seeds
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon dried rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon dried ginger
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat the oven to 300°F.
- Step 2: Combine all ingredients, except the currants, in a large bowl. Stir well to combine.
- Step 3: Spread the mixture on a parchment-lined baking sheet as evenly as possible. Bake at 300°F for 20 minutes. After the first 10 minutes, use a spatula to turn the mixture over to brown on the opposite side.
- Step 4: Remove the granoli from the oven and transfer the parchment paper to a cooling rack. Add the currants; the residual heat will soften them. Let cool fully.
- Serve: Enjoy with almond milk, yogurt, or by the handful.
Recipe Notes
Note 1: Currants are ideal in this recipe, because of their small size. However, any dried fruit could work as a substitute in a pinch - raisins, dried cranberries, dried blueberries, or dried cherries. Just be sure not to add the dried fruits during the baking process, or they will become too hard.

If granola and muesli had a flavorful lovechild, it would be this recipe - aptly named granoli. This crunchy not-too-sweet blend of almonds, pistachios, and seeds is lightly baked like a traditional granola, but the looser texture (since there is less sugar and oil to work as a binder) is decidedly muesli inspired. It's the best of both worlds. Rosemary and olive oil make this a tad savory, maple syrup has some sweetness, and the ginger gives it some kick.
