Quick and Easy Toasted Oats

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 300F

Step 2

Line two baking sheet pans with parchment paper and set them aside.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix the oil, honey, and vanilla. Using a whisk preferably, mix all the liquids until well incorporated.

Step 4

Add the rolled oats, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ground ginger in the large bowl. With a spatula, mix all the ingredients until well combined. Add the nuts at this time if using.

Step 5

Pour the honey and oil mixture over the oats and blend well with the spatula or with your hands if preferred.

Step 6

Spread oats onto the lined baking sheet pans and spread out evenly

Step 7

Bake at 300F for 15-20 minutes until a nice golden brown in a 300F preheated oven. While the mixture is baking it is recommended to watch the baking process as every oven temperature is different. You may also need to add a few more minutes so the mixture could harden a bit more.

Step 8

Allow the mixture to cool completely before crumbling the oats. Store in an airtight container and enjoy.
