Ingredients

  • 5 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup pecans
  • 1 cup vanilla protein powder (your favorite brand)
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup maple syrup or honey
  • 3 tablespoons oil

Directions

  1. 1

    Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees F.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, combine all ingredients. Stir well to combine, until all of the mixture looks wet.

  3. 3

    Transfer mixture to a large baking sheet, lined with parchment paper. If not using parchment paper, just spray the sheet pans with cooking oil.

  4. 4

    Pack the mixture down to about 1/4-1/2.” This allows the mixture to roast evenly and gives the bottom a little crisp. Bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through.

  5. 5

    Once the granola is done baking and golden in color, remove the tray from the oven and let the granola cool completely.

  6. 6

    Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.
