Granola Preparation
- Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. Place a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 300 degrees F.
- In a large bowl, toss together oats, brown sugar, spices, and salt.
- In a small bowl, whisk together honey, olive oil, and vanilla. Add to the oat mixture and toss until the oats are lightly coated.
- In the same small bowl, whisk the egg white until it becomes lightly frothy. Add to the oat mixture and toss to coat.
- Toss in the walnuts and macadamia nuts and stir to combine. Spread into an even layer across the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 35-45 minutes, tossing every 10-12 minutes to ensure even browning until golden brown. The granola will crisp as it cools.
Honey Syrup Preparation
- While the granola bakes, make the honey syrup. In a small saucepan, combine honey, sugar, water, cinnamon stick, and orange peel. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and allow to simmer for about 10-15 minutes until slightly thickened. Transfer to a jar and allow to cool before storing at room temperature.
Finishing Touches
- Once the granola has cooled, stir in dried apricots or any preferred dried fruit. Add pistachios if desired. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for a week.
- To serve, drizzle a serving with honey syrup and stir. Serve over yogurt with pomegranate seeds and extra pistachios if desired, and drizzle additional honey syrup.

Notes
For an extra sweet touch, consider adding a sprinkle of sea salt right before serving to complement the honey syrup beautifully.
