Ingredients

The following ingredients have 7 Servings
  • 5 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • ½ cup slivered almonds OR ¾ cup chopped pecans
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ⅔ cup honey
  • ⅓ cup coconut oil or butter *
  • ½ cup chunky peanut butter
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla
  • 1 cup raisins or craisins (I used a combination of both)

Instruction

  • Lightly grease the crock-pot with a teaspoon or so of oil. Add the oats, almonds and salt.
  • In a large measuring cup or small glass bowl, combine the honey, oil, peanut butter, cinnamon, and vanilla. Microwave for a minute, stir and microwave an additional 30 seconds as needed, to melt everything and allow it to combine smoothly. (In lieu of a microwave, this can easily be done in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring frequently.)
  • Pour the liquids over the oats in the crockpot and stir well to thoroughly coat. Place the lid on the crockpot, leaving it slightly vented. (I use a wooden chopstick for this, as pictured in the post.) Cook on HIGH for about 2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes. Stir in the dried fruit right at the end.
  • Spread the granola across a large baking sheet and let it cool before transferring to an airtight container. Enjoy!
