Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Ginger-Spiced Homemade Granola.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 325°F (165°C).
Step 2
In a spacious mixing bowl, blend together rolled oats, quick-cooking oats, and a delightful medley of chopped pecans, walnuts, almonds, and pepitas.
Step 3
Stir well to ensure every ingredient is harmoniously combined.
Step 4
Spread this wholesome oat and nut mixture evenly across a baking sheet and let it toast in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, filling your kitchen with a warm, nutty aroma.
Step 5
After 10 minutes, take the baking sheet out and transfer the mixture back to the large bowl.
Step 6
Now, lower the oven temperature to a gentle 225°F (110°C).
Step 7
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together maple syrup, melted coconut oil, chopped crystallized ginger, ground turmeric, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, salt, ground cardamom, and a pinch of black pepper if you desire a little kick.
Step 8
Pour this fragrant syrup over the oat and nut blend, stirring thoroughly to ensure every morsel is coated in that sweet, spiced goodness.
Step 9
Return the mixture to the baking sheet, spreading it out evenly once more.
Step 10
Bake in the oven for 30 minutes, then turn off the heat and let the granola sit inside for an additional hour to achieve that perfect crispiness.
Step 11
Once cooled, remove the granola from the oven and allow it to reach room temperature for about 30 minutes before indulging in this crunchy, flavorful treat.

Enjoy the satisfying crunch and the delightful blend of flavors in every bite!.
