This is a recipe I was a bit hesitant to try at first. I thought it was going to take a lot of time to make; but I was pleasantly surprised to find just how easy Granola is to make! I love eating it with a little milk, or served on top of plain yogurt. My husband even used it on top of his vanilla ice cream! I hope you will give it a try, and then let me know what you thought of it!
Homemade Granola
INGREDIENTS:
2 cups rolled oats
1/2 cup dried craisins
1/2 cup raisins
1/3 cup shelled sunflower seeds
1/3 cup slivered almonds
3/4 cup shredded coconut
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup flaxseed
1/3 cup grapeseed (or olive) oil
*You can add other dried fruits, as well. But craisins and raisins are our favorites!
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl. Spread out loosely on a large cookie sheet sprayed with cooking spray.
Bake 25 minutes; stopping every 10 minutes to stir granola.
When finished baking, take out of oven, stir again; allow to cool down on cookie sheet.
After granola has cooled down, store in air-tight container.
Happy Eating!
I really like the looks of this recipe!!! I have to buy a few of the ingredients, but I will make it and give you an update sometime soon. Thanks, Christi!
I have it in the oven. What is the serving size if I want to eat it as my cereal? 1/3 cup equals 1 serving?
