Ingredients

MAKES ABOUT 1.1 ltr 
  • 2 1/4 cups old-fashioned oats
  • 1 tablespoon golden or other flaxseeds (optional)
  • 3/4 Teaspoon of Rock Salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • 2 tablespoons (packed) light brown sugar
  • 3/4 raw almonds, coarsely chopped
  • 1/3 cup cashews
  • 1/3 cup raw sunflower seeds
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/2 cup raisins
  • Yogurt
  • Thinly sliced mangoes, papayas, or other fresh fruit

Preparation

Heat oven to 300°. Mix oats, millet and flaxseeds (if using), 1/4 tsp. salt, cinnamon, and ginger in a medium bowl. Add 1 cup hot tap water. Mix thoroughly and let stand for 15 minutes to soften oats.
Bring honey, 2 Tbsp. oil, and brown sugar to a boil in a small saucepan, stirring to dissolve sugar. Add honey mixture to oat mixture in bowl and toss to coat. Spread out in an even layer on a large rimmed baking sheet.
Bake oat mixture, stirring 2–3 times, until dark golden brown, 50–60 minutes. Place sheet on a wire rack and let oat mixture cool completely.
Increase oven temperature to 350°. Mix remaining 1/2 tsp. salt, remaining 2 Tbsp. oil, almonds, pumpkin and sunflower seeds, and sugar in a medium bowl. Spread in an even layer on another rimmed baking sheet. Bake, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 10–12 minutes. Place sheet on a wire rack and let nut mixture cool completely.
Combine oat mixture, nut mixture, and raisins in a large bowl. DO AHEAD: Granola can be made 1 week ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.
Serve granola in bowls with yogurt and sliced fresh fruit.
