Why this pairing works
An egg white and a no-stir bake are the secrets to big clusters. Maple and lavender sugar caramelize together into a crisp coating, and a little lavender salt keeps it from tasting too sweet.
Makes about 6 cups Prep 10 min Cook 45 min
Ingredients
- 3 cups old-fashioned oats
- 1 cup pecans or almonds, roughly chopped
- 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
- 1/3 cup Lavender Maple Syrup
- 1/4 cup coconut or olive oil, melted
- 2 Tbsp Lavender Sugar
- Lavender Salt Grinder, about 1/2 tsp
- 1 egg white, whisked until frothy
- 3/4 cup dried tart cherries
Directions
- Heat the oven to 300°F and line a sheet pan with parchment.
- Stir the oats, nuts, seeds, maple syrup, oil, Lavender Sugar and Lavender Salt until everything is coated. Fold in the egg white.
- Press the mixture into a flat, even layer on the pan.
- Bake 40 to 45 minutes without stirring, rotating the pan halfway, until golden and dry to the touch.
- Cool completely on the pan, at least 30 minutes, then break into clusters and stir in the cherries.
Make it your own
