        How to make honey pecan granola (and pretty much every other kind of granola too)<\/h2>\n
          \n
        1. Toast nuts<\/strong> – to boost that nutty flavor<\/li>\n
        2. Combine dry ingredients<\/strong> – it’s easier to make sure everything is evenly distributed when dry ingredients are mixed first before adding any wet ingredients<\/li>\n
        3. Add oil and sweetener<\/strong> – oil and whatever sweetener(s) you choose (honey, molasses, maple syrup, vanilla extract) are all mixed in during this step<\/li>\n
        4. Bake<\/strong> – keep an eye on the granola – you want it to brown, but not burn.\u00a0For larger chunks of granola, mid-way through baking use a spatula to turn the granola then use the spatula to press the granola back into a single even layer. If you leave the turned granola as-is, it will result in mostly smaller bits of granola instead of a large sheet that you can break apart as you see fit.<\/span><\/li>\n
        5. Let it cool<\/strong> – it’s important to let the granola cool and become brittle before attempting to break it into pieces. While you wait, add the zest of a lemon to your granola to add a fresh pop of citrus flavor.<\/li>\n
        6. Enjoy!<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Ways to adjust your honey pecan granola<\/h2>\n
            \n
          • Instead of pecans use toasted pumpkin seeds, pistachios, walnuts, or whatever your favorite nuts are. You can even toss in some nuts and seeds untoasted like sunflower or sesame seeds.<\/span><\/li>\n
          • I love using olive oil because it gives the granola a slightly savory flavor and helps it not become overwhelmingly sweet. Use canola oil for a neutral flavor and coconut oil for a sweeter granola.<\/span><\/li>\n
          • You can use agave or maple syrup instead of honey.<\/span><\/li>\n
          • Add dried fruit or ginger to add a tart, chewy factor to your granola.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            How<\/span> to make substitutions:<\/b><\/p>\n

              \n
            • \u200b\u200bThe recipe contains 4 cups of oatmeal and 2 cups of pecans.\u00a0 That means you can easily substitute other ingredients so long as you keep the total volume around 6 cups. For example, you could swap out a cup of oatmeal for a cup of seeds. Or switch the 1 cup of pecans to 1 cup of walnuts, or even reduce the amount of nuts to just 1 cup and add an extra cup of oats, dried coconut, or dried fruit.<\/span><\/li>\n
            • For sweeteners, use a 1:1 ratio. \u00bd cup of honey for \u00bd cup of any other sweetener combination of your choice.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

              10 ways to enjoy granola<\/h2>\n
                \n
              1. In a yogurt or smoothie bowl<\/span><\/li>\n
              2. Add some texture to your oatmeal<\/span><\/li>\n
              3. As a french toast coating<\/span><\/li>\n
              4. On top of or mixed into ice cream<\/span><\/li>\n
              5. Plain with a side of sliced cheese and vegetables (carrots, celery, cucumber)<\/span><\/li>\n
              6. With a fruit spread or cookie butter<\/span><\/li>\n
              7. As a crumble topping for baked apples, pies, peach cobbler, banana bread, etc.<\/span><\/li>\n
              8. Made into granola bars<\/li>\n
              9. Crumbled on top of cheesecakes<\/li>\n
              10. Paired with baked sweet potatoes and marshmallows<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
