Skillet Granola Food

SKILLET GRANOLA-APPLE CRISP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Melt the butter in a medium nonreactive and ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add the granola, 1 tablespoon of the flour and 1 tablespoon sugar and toss until the sugar is dissolved and the granola is well coated. Transfer to a bowl. (Reserve the skillet.)
• Pour the apples into the skillet; toss with the pumpkin pie spice, lemon juice and remaining 1/4 cup sugar. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples are juicy and slightly softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon flour. Scatter the reserved granola mixture evenly over the top and transfer the skillet to the oven. Bake until the crisp is bubbling and the apples are tender, 35 to 40 minutes. Serve warm.

5-MINUTE GRANOLA

Steps:

• Add the oats, almonds and coconut to a dry nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Toast in the skillet, stirring, until they are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Stir in the wheat germ, then pour onto a plate.
• Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. When the butter has melted, add the honey, brown sugar, maple syrup, vanilla and salt. Bring to a boil and let cook, stirring, until it combines into a thin syrup, about 1 minute.
• Add the toasted dry ingredients back to the skillet and stir quickly, keeping the granola from clumping too much, but ensuring the dry ingredients are all coated in the syrup, about 1 minute. Serve warm, or allow to cool for 30 minutes, at which point the granola will become crispier.
• Sprinkle the granola over the cold yogurt and garnish with blueberries.

STOVETOP GRANOLA

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add oats then cook and stir until starting to brown and crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and spread out on a cookie sheet to cool.
• Melt the butter in the same pan over medium heat. Stir in the honey and brown sugar; cook, stirring constantly, until bubbly. Return the oats to the pan. Cook and stir for another 5 minutes or so. Pour out onto the cookie sheet and spread to cool.
• Once cool, transfer to an airtight container and stir in the almonds and dried cranberries. Any additional nuts and fruit can be stirred in at this time also.
