Ingredients
- 7 Tbsp olive oil
- 7 Tbsp honey
- ¾ tsp kosher salt
- 3 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup slivered almonds
- 1 cup walnuts, snapped in half
- 1 cup pecans, snapped in half
- 1 cup shredded sweetened coconut
- ¾ cup dried cherries, halved
- ½ cup dried soft golden apricots*, chopped into quarters
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 250F.
- In a food processor combine the olive oil, honey and salt, and blend for a few minutes to emulsify.
- In a large mixing bowl combine the oats, nuts, and coconut. Toss to combine and mix well.
- Drizzle with the olive oil and honey mixture and toss again to combine thoroughly. You can drizzle a little at a time to coat all of the oats.
- Transfer evenly onto two sheet pans.
- Stirring every 15 minutes, place in the oven and toast until golden, about 45 minutes total. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for an hour. Add the dried fruit to the sheet pan and toss to mix thoroughly. Optional: Add chocolate chips and toss to combine.
