Savory Oat Sprinkle
This is granola's very savory cousin and adds crunch and spice to anything you sprinkle it over.
Ingredients
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp honey
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup any seeds and nuts you have on hand
Method
- In a medium sized frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat
- Add the paprika and allow to fry in the oil to bloom (about 30 seconds)
- Add the oats and toss in the spiced oil and cook over medium heat until toasty and fragrant (about 3 minutes)
- Add the honey, salt, zaatar, and thyme leaves (if using) and toss to coat
- Cook an additional 2 minutes and then remove from the heat, add any additional seeds or nuts, toss to combine, and let cool
- Once cool, store in an airtight container at room temperature but out of direct sunlight (which will warm the jar and soften the oats) for up to two weeks
