I’m making homemade granola today. Mmmmm! Gotta love the heart healthiness of oats! 😛 Here is my stock recipe + today’s changes.
1/2 cup canola oil
1/4 cup melted butter (I used butter spread made with canola oil)
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 t vanilla (today I used almond extract)
2 t cinnamon
1/2 c honey (I made 2 T of this butter pecan syrup)
1 c slivered almonds (6 oz container honey roasted almonds)
1 c dried fruit pieces (3 small grated granny smith apples)
18 oz container of rolled oats
Mix all the ingredients except the oats together. Stir in oats until coated. Spread onto racks. Dry at 145 degrees until crunchy. Crumble and store in an airtight container.
