Kamut contains about 30 percent more protein than other wheat-based grains, and with its naturally crunchy texture we figured it would be the perfect base for a healthy granola that won’t get soggy in milk. Walnuts add even more crunch to this granola, and dried apricots and agave provide sweetness.
What to buy: Rolled kamut flakes, not to be confused with kamut berries, can be found at health food stores, gourmet grocery stores, or online.

Instructions
- 1Heat the oven to 300°F and arrange a rack in the middle.
- 2Place the kamut, walnuts, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl and stir to combine; set aside.
- 3Place the agave, oil, and vanilla in a small bowl and stir to combine. Drizzle over the kamut mixture and mix until the kamut is thoroughly coated and there are no clumps.
- 4Spread the mixture in a thin, even layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, about 20 to 25 minutes.
- 5Transfer the granola to a large heatproof bowl, add the apricots, and stir to combine. Let cool completely. (The granola will crisp up as it cools.) Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
