Serves 8

  1. To prepare the cardamom gingersnap topping, heat oven to 325˚F. Combine oats and gingersnap cookies in a large bowl. Place canola oil, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, honey, cinnamon, cardamom, salt, and vanilla extra in a small saucepan and heat over medium heat until mixture is boiling and sugar is dissolved, about 3 minutes. Pour hot sugar mixture into the bowl with the oats and mix well. Spread topping evenly onto a parchment paper lined cookie sheet and bake at 325˚F for 10 minutes; add coconut, stir, and bake an additional 5 to 8 minutes, or until coconut is golden brown, stirring occasionally. Cool completely, about 15 minutes, and stir in raisins.
