Lemon Granola Recipe
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 lemons: 3 zested, 1 juiced
- 1/3 cup honey or agave nectar
- 3 tablespoons grapeseed or other neutral oil, plus more for the pan
- Preheat the oven to 250°F.
- Toss together the oats and salt in a medium bowl.
- Whisk the zest, lemon juice, honey, and oil together in a small bowl. Add to the oats and toss until well coated.
- Spread the mixture evenly on a greased or lined baking sheet. Bake the granola for 25 to 30 minutes, breaking up clumps and tossing every 10 minutes, until caramelized. Let cool completely, by which point the granola should have become crunchy (it will still seem wet and mushy when warm). Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
