  • Total Time: 25-30 minutes
  • Yield: About 20 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats
  • 1/2 cup dried blueberries
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (a pinch)

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the old-fashioned oats, chopped pecans, dried blueberries, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Stir to evenly distribute all the dry components.
  3. Blend Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together melted coconut oil, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract until fully combined and smooth.
  4. Combine and Toss: Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients, and gently fold together until everything is coated and looks evenly mixed.
  5. Spread and Bake: Spread the mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet in a thin layer to allow for crisp edges and even cooking. Bake for 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway through to prevent burning and to help the oaties crisp up evenly.
  6. Cool and Store: Allow the Blueberry Pecan Oaties to cool completely on the baking sheet before transferring to an airtight container, which helps them stay crunchy.

Notes

  • Use quality ingredients: fresh nuts and high-quality dried blueberries make a noticeable difference in taste.
  • Watch the bake time carefully to avoid over-browning.
  • Cool completely to firm up the texture and achieve the perfect crunch.
  • Spread the mixture in a single layer for consistent baking and maximum crispness.
  • Store in a sealed container at room temperature to maintain freshness for up to a week.
