HONEY MAPLE GRANOLA



Honey Maple Granola image

This is my favorite granola recipe adapted from the joy of baking website. It's not too sweet, and tastes great with a variety of nuts and dried fruit. Makes a great gift!

Provided by Harriet

Categories     Breakfast

Time 55m

Yield 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 cups old fashioned oats
1/2 cup shredded coconut (sweetened or unsweetened)
1 cup nuts, chopped (I like a mixture of almonds, pecans, cashews, and sunflower seeds)
1/2-1 teaspoon cinnamon (I use 1 teaspoon)
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 tablespoons honey
3 tablespoons maple syrup
1 cup dried fruit (I like a mixture of cranberries, raisins, chopped apples and apricots)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine rolled oats, coconut, nuts, cinnamon, and salt.
  • In a separate bowl stir together oil, maple syrup and honey.
  • Pour liquid mixture over the dry ingredients and stir together.
  • Spread onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for approx 20-25 minutes (stirring occasionally).
  • The longer you bake it the crunchier the granola will be. It may still be sticky when it comes out of the oven, but it will become crisp and dry as it cools.
  • Place baking sheet on a wire cooling rack.
  • Once cooled, mix in the dried fruit and store in an airtight container or plastic bag in the refrigerator.
  • It will keep for several weeks.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, natural ingredients. The quality of your ingredients will greatly affect the taste of your granola. Choose organic oats, nuts, and seeds whenever possible.
  • Don't overcook the granola. Granola is best when it is slightly chewy, not hard. Keep a close eye on it while it is baking, and remove it from the oven as soon as it is golden brown.
  • Store the granola in an airtight container. This will help to keep it fresh and prevent it from becoming stale.
  • Enjoy the granola on its own, or add it to yogurt, oatmeal, or smoothies. It is also a great topping for ice cream or fruit salad.

Conclusion:

Granola is an easy, delicious, and nutritious snack or breakfast food. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make your own granola at home. By following these tips, you can create a delicious and healthy granola that you and your family will love.
