Maple-Nut Granola-Martha Stewart

By amaliana

This granola has less oil than most, plus healthy fat from the nuts.
Serve it with low-fat yogurt and fruit.

Ingredients

• 3 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1/4 cup chopped pecans
• 1/4 cup chopped almonds
• 1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
• 5 teaspoons vegetable oil
• 5 tablespoons pure maple syrup
• 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat the oven to 325 F. In a large bowl toss together 3 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats, 1/4 cup chopped pecans, 1/4 cup chopped almonds, 1/4 teaspoon coarse salt, 5 teaspoons vegetable oil, 5 tablespoons pure maple syrup, and 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract.
