Description

Adapted from Alton Brown's earlier recipe, this includes my wife's favorite flavors - Walnuts, Cherries, and Chocolate.

Ingredients
  • 3 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup slivered almonds
  • 1 cup walnuts
  • 1/2 cup desiccated coconut
  • 1/4 cup cocoa nibs
  • 6 tbsp dark brown sugar
  • 6 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1 cup dried cherries
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 250 degrees F convection.

  2. In a large bowl, combine the oats, nuts, coconut, and brown sugar. In a separate bowl, combine maple syrup, oil, and salt. Combine both mixtures and pour onto 2 sheet pans. Cook for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes to achieve an even color. Add the cocoa nibs for the last 15 minutes.  

  3. Remove from oven and transfer into a large bowl. Add dried cherries and mix until evenly distributed.
