granola
6 cups
Ingredients
18 oz. Oats
1/3 cup Coconut
1/3 cup slivered Almonds
2/3 cup Maple Syrup
1/4 cup Canola Oil
1 Tablespoon Cinnamon
2 Tablespoons Super Seeds
2 Tablespoons Hemp Seeds
1/4 cup Raisins
1 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°
Place the Oats on a sheet pan and toast them until they are lightly browned for approximately 10 minutes.
Make sure to toss the Oats occasionally so they brown evenly.
In a large bowl, place the toasted Oats and all of the other ingredients together and mix well.
Place the Granola back onto the sheet pan and bake for 12-15 minutes longer or until golden browned.
Be sure to turn over the Granola while baking a few times to insure even browning.
Remove from the oven and cool.
Notes
You can make any type of Granola with this basic recipe. Be creative perhaps some of these add-in’s will be a welcoming breakfast.
Chai Spices, Cranberries, Dates, Chocolate, Pecans, Macadamia Nuts, Orange Zest, White Chocolate, Pistachios, Cocoa Nibs or just about any other combination will be really tasty.
You can sweeten it up some more by adding an extra 1/4 cup sweetener such as Molasses & Honey. Or be more decadent and add 2 Tablespoons of melted Butter to the mix before baking to get those “clusters” of Granola. A little bit like a mini Granola Bar. Remember there aren’t any mistakes and have fun!!
