I’ve never eaten at Eleven Madison Park even though they offer a vegetarian tasting menu. I’m waiting for my 10 year old to become a little more adventurous. But their granola is sublime. I’ve previously substituted walnuts and pecans for the pistachios and raisins for the sour cherries. I would keep the liquid proportions the same because they are perfect. I found this recipe in the NYT.

Heat oven to 300

Mix 2 1/2 cup rolled oats, 1 cup unsweetened dried coconut flakes, 1 cup shelled pistachios, 1 tbsp kosher salt (decrease if using fine salt) , 1/3 cup pumpkin seeds

In a small utensil, heat 1/3 cup olive oil, 1/3 cup maple syrup and 1/2 cup  light brown sugar till the sugar dissolves

Pour over dry ingredients, mix well and bake for 30-35 minutes (tossing the ingredients every 10 minutes) till golden brown

Add 3/4 cup dried sour cherries.

Enjoy however you love granola, with yogurt, milk or in our house- just snacking on it.
