Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup honey

  • 4 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 1/2 cups mixed nuts I used roasted, salted almonds/pecans/and cashews
  • 1 cup raisins
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 large egg whites

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F and line a rimmed baking sheet with a silicone baking mat. Set aside.
  • Place oil, honey, and vanilla into a large mixing bowl, whisk until combined, then gently fold in oats, nuts, raisins, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.
  • Place egg whites into a medium sized bowl, then use a hand mixer to whisk the egg whites until VERY frothy.
  • Use a rubber spatula to gently fold the whipped egg whites into the granola mixture.
  • Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheat oven for 35-45 minutes or until golden brown and relatively dry.
  • Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely before breaking into clumps.
