Equipment
Ingredients
Dry Ingredients:
- 6 cups old-fashioned rolled oats (Note 1)
- ½ cup packed brown sugar
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- ¼ cup ground flaxseed
- 3 tablespoons ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
Wet Ingredients:
- ½ cup butter melted
- ½ cup pure maple syrup (Note 2)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Glaze Ingredients:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons milk or dairy free milk
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
- Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, add the rolled oats, brown sugar, chopped pecans, ground flaxseed, cinnamon, and sea salt. Stir until evenly combined.
- Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, stir the melted butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Pour the mixture over the dry ingredients and stir until all the oats are well coated.
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the granola into an even, single layer.
- Bake at 250 degrees F for 75 minutes, or until lightly golden. Do not stir. Remove from the oven and allow the granola to cool completely without touching it. This helps clusters set.
- Glaze Ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled granola using a fork. Let the glaze set before breaking the granola into clusters.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 7 days, or freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature before serving.
- Serve over yogurt or enjoy the clusters on their own as a snack.
Notes
Note 1: Use certified gluten free rolled oats if needed. Do not substitute quick oats, as the texture will not be the same.
Note 2: Use pure maple syrup, not imitation syrup.
Glaze Notes: For a less sweet granola, the glaze can be omitted.
Low FODMAP Notes: Low FODMAP ingredient information is based on the Monash University Food App and FODMAP Friendly App testing results.
