Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup oats
  • ½ cup raw pecans
  • ¼ tsp. salt
  • ¼ tsp. cinnamon
  • ½ tsp. ginger
  • 3 tbsp. diced crystallized ginger
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp. molasses
  • ¼ cup safflower or melted coconut oil

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350º. Pulse raw pecans in a high powered blender or food processor until they’re a fine meal. Cut up the crystallized ginger into tiny pieces or thin slices—I like to use kitchen shears for the task.
  • Mix dry ingredients except for sugar with your hands or a whisk, adding in the crystallized ginger at the end. Mix so that the crystallized ginger isn’t clumped together.
  • Whisk together the sugar, molasses, and oil until fully blended, and pour over dry ingredients, mixing until thoroughly incorporated.
  • Spread evenly on a baking sheet, and bake for 25-30 minutes, using a spatula to turn the granola ever 7 minutes or so, scraping the edges towards the middle and redistributing outwards.
  • Let cool completely before serving, then store in an airtight container.
