Granola! I love it. After several failed batches, I came up with this recipe a few years ago. So crunchy and sweet, it can be quite addictive. 🙂 Any dried fruit works wonderfully but my personal favorite is dried blueberries!
Yields: about 6 cups granola
Ingredients
- 3 cups rolled oats
- 3/4 cup un-sweetened coconut
- 1 cup pecans (slightly chopped)
- 1 cup slivered almonds
- 1/4 cup butter (melted)
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 cup dried blueberries or any other dried fruit
Directions
- Preheat oven to 290°
- Combine oats, coconut, pecans, almonds, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl. Pour in butter, syrup, honey, and vanilla. Toss until combined!
- Spread evenly over a large cookie sheet. Bake for approximately 1 hour(or until golden), turning granola every 20 minutes. Granola will be golden brown when it it is ready to come out of the oven.
- Remove from oven and stir in dried fruit. Allow to cool completely!
- Enjoy!
