WHOLE GRAIN GRANOLA



Whole Grain Granola image

This recipe for a not-too-sweet, olive-oil and honey-enriched granola can be used as a template. Vary the types and amounts of puffed and rolled (also called flaked) grains, coconut and nuts to suit your taste, as long as you use eight cups altogether. And feel free to add chopped dried fruit at the end, stirring it into the granola mix while it's still warm. If you want to add spices, stir a mix of ground cinnamon, ginger, and cardamom into the honey mixture before baking. It's easy to make this recipe your own.

- For a chewier granola bar, use more peanut butter and less honey. - For a crunchier granola bar, use less peanut butter and more honey. - If you don't have any rolled oats, you can use quick oats instead. - If you don't have any honey, you can use maple syrup or agave nectar instead. - Be sure to press the granola bar mixture firmly into the pan so that it holds together well. - Let the granola bars cool completely before cutting them into bars. - Store the granola bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
