Description
This is really a basic granola recipe. Nothing too fancy. Nothing too “scary” for the kids. Just 3 main ingredients and some flavor.
Ingredients
Scale
- 5 cups rolled oats
- 1 package sliced almonds (about 8 oz.)
- 1 cup coconut flakes
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/4 cup canola oil
- 2 tablespoons vanilla
- Add cranberries after cooking, if desired…
Instructions
- In a small bowl (or large liquid measuring cup) combine honey, oil and vanilla. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl combine oats, almonds, coconut, cinnamon and salt. Stir to combine.
- Pour honey mixture over oats and stir until well combined and the honey is evenly distributed.
- Pour onto 2 lined baking sheets.
- Bake at 250 degrees for 1 hour and 15 minutes… stirring the granola every 15 minutes or so to evenly toast the mixture.
- When finished, immediately transfer to a bowl to cool (the granola will stick to your baking sheet if left to cool on the baking sheet.)
- Enjoy!
Notes
Feel free to add dried cranberries or other dried fruit to the granola AFTER it has been cooked.
