Salted Caramel Granola Recipe

Sharing is caring!

We tried out the recipe recently, and it was so yummy! We love cereal in this house, so going with salted caramel granola was a no-brainer. Enjoy!

Ingredients

3 cups rolled oats

1 cup chopped organic pecans

1/2 cup organic seeds of choice (I like pumpkin seeds or ground flax for this recipe)

1 cup caramel sauce

2 Tbsp sea salt (you may find this a tad salty; if so, just reduce salt by half)

Instructions

1. Make your caramel sauce. If you use store-bought, you can skip this step
2. Preheat the oven. See step 6 for notes on oven temp
3. In a mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients
4. Pour the caramel sauce into the dry ingredients and stir together. Be sure all the dry ingredients are well soaked.
5. Spread granola on a baking sheet
6. Bake anywhere between 200°F and 350°F. Note that the lower and slower the granola is, the less likely it is to burn. But it does take a few hours. The higher the heat, the faster the cooking, but more likely to burn without frequent stirring (usually around 30 minutes). The goal is to get it dry and crunchy without burning.
7. Take it out of the oven and let it cool
8. Store in an airtight container. Will last a month in an airtight container.
