ingredients

3 cups rolled oats
1 cup shredded coconut
1 cup pecans, coarsely chopped
¹⁄₄ cup toasted wheat germ
2 tablespoons olive oil
¹⁄₂ teaspoon salt
¹⁄₂ cup maple syrup
¹⁄₂ cup honey
¹⁄₄ teaspoon cinnamon
1 large egg white

directions

Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
Combine all ingredients but the egg whites in a large bowl, tossing to coat evenly.
Whisk egg white in a small bowl until frothy. Stir into granola mixture, distributing it throughout.
Spread in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 45-55 minutes or until browned and dry to the touch.
Halfway through baking, use a large spatula to turn over sections of the granola. Rotate the pan if granola bakes unevenly.
Once finished baking, cool completely and then break into desired sized clusters.
Enjoy!
