Instructions
- Combine Dry Ingredients. Place all dry ingredients in a large baking pan and mix to combine.4 cups rolled oats, ¼ cup oat bran, ¼ cup sesame seeds
- Add Dried Fruit. Stir in raisins.1 cup raisins
- Mix in Wet Ingredients. Drizzle olive oil and honey over the top in a thin stream, not just in one spot.💡Tip: I usually drizzle back and forth over the top. Then use a big slotted spoon to gently stir so every grain gets coated.¼ cup olive oil, ¼ cup honey
- Bake. Bake 15–20 minutes, stirring occasionally.💡Tip: Keep an eye on the raisins—they should soften slightly but not puff up or burst
- Bake. Cool & Store. Let cool completely before storing, so steam doesn’t soften the granola.
Notes
Stirring: Drizzle the honey and oil in a thin stream and stir until every oat looks glossy and coated—this prevents scorching.
- Doneness: The granola should smell toasty and look golden. It won’t crisp fully in the oven but will firm up as it cools.
- Raisins: Pull the pan when raisins look soft. If they puff or burst, they’ll harden as they cool.
- Cooling & Storage: Let granola cool completely before storing so steam doesn’t soften it. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
- Serving Ideas: Enjoy with milk, layered into yogurt parfaits, or packed into lunch boxes. Great for road trips or brunch boards.
