Ingredients
- 2¼ cups rolled oats
- ¾ cup walnuts
- ⅔ cup raw almonds
- ½ cup plain cashews
- ⅓ cup honey
- 5 tablespoons salted butter melted
- ¾ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup dried cranberries
- ¾ cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and coat a large sheet pan (18×13 inches) with cooking spray or parchment paper.
- Put the rolled oats, walnuts, almonds, and cashews in a large bowl. Stir together gently.
- Mix together the honey, salted butter, and cinnamon in a small bowl until completely combined.
- Pour the honey mixture over the rolled oat mixture and stir until everything is well-coated.
- Spread out evenly onto the prepared sheet pan.
- Bake in the oven for 6 minutes, and then stir the granola.
- Return the pan to the oven for another 6 to 12 minutes or until the oats are a nice golden brown color.
- Once the granola is cooked, let it cool on the sheet pan until it has completely cooled to room temperature. Do not stir until it is completely cooled.
- Mix in the dried cranberries and white chocolate chips with the cooled granola.
- Serve or store in a container until ready to serve.
Notes
- Oven temperatures vary and may need to be recalibrated periodically to ensure they are accurate. Make sure to check your granola at the lower end of the recommended baking time.
- Make sure that the granola is completely cooled so that the white chocolate chips don’t melt when you add them to the mixture.
