Perfect Homemade Granola Food

GRANOLA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, combine the oats, nuts, coconut, and brown sugar.
• In a separate bowl, combine maple syrup, oil, and salt. Combine both mixtures and pour onto 2 sheet pans. Cook for 1 hour and 15 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes to achieve an even color.
• Remove from oven and transfer into a large bowl. Add raisins and mix until evenly distributed.

PERFECT HOMEMADE GRANOLA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Lightly coat a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. In a large bowl, stir together oats, almonds, pecans, cherries, coconut, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
• In a small saucepan, combine oil, honey, and sugar. Bring to a boil and remove from heat. Stir in vanilla. Drizzle syrup over oat mixture; toss with a wooden spoon. Pour granola onto sheet pan and spread evenly. Bake, stirring occasionally, until golden (about 25 minutes). Let granola cool completely on a wire rack. Break it into chunks and store in an airtight container.

HOMEMADE GRANOLA

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F (160 degrees C).
• Line a large sheet pan or two smaller ones with parchment paper.
• Take a medium-large saucepan and on a medium heat, add the maple syrup and olive oil. Heat through, stirring to combine.
• Add the oats, nuts, seeds and cinnamon to the syrup mixture and stir well with a wooden spoon to coat all of the dry ingredients.
• Evenly spread the granola out onto the prepared sheet pan and place in the oven to bake for 30 minutes, checking and stirring around every 10 minutes to allow all the mix to toast evenly.
• Once golden and roasted, take the granola out. While it is still warm, stir in the dried cranberries and raisins and toss together. The mixture will crisp up more as it cools.
• Once cool, store in an airtight container.

HOMEMADE GRANOLA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 360 degrees.
• Toast nuts in pan over stove until lightly brown.
• Mix the fruit juice, honey, maple syrup, oil, vanilla, and spices in a large bowl. It's okay to add more honey, maple syrup, cinnamon, or spices - just depends how you like your granola to taste.
• Add oats and nuts into honey mixture and combine together.
• Spread mixture on a baking sheet and bake 30 minutes until golden. Stir occasionally. Use your best judgement when baking. I like mine a little crunchy, so sometimes I bake it 40 minutes.
• Leave on pan to cool.
• If you are using dried fruit stir in once completely cooled.
• Store granola in container with lid (not in refrigerator). It will last about a week or a little longer. Add granola to vanilla yogurt, or with milk, or eat plain.
