This is a recipe that I came up with after just being tired of that granola flake stuff that you need a spoon to eat. I wanted something I could pick up when I was on the go, but still something with that wonderful granola crunch. So, this is it. ENJOY! Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups old fashioned oats |
2/3 cup flour |
1/2 cup packed brown sugar |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup your favorite nuts, chopped |
1/2 cup butter (try not to use margarine) |
1/2 cup pure maple syrup |
1/4 cup dried cranberries |
1/4 cup raisins |
1/4 cup dates, chopped |
Directions:
1. Preheat your oven to 325°F In a large bowl, stir together the first 5 ingredients; set aside.
2. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and maple syrup together in the microwave on high.
3. Stir the butter mixture into the dry ingredients and pour onto a lined baking sheet.
4. Bake for 10 minutes, flip the granola over and bake for about 10 minutes.
5. Remove from the oven and toss with the dried fruit while still hot.
6. Serve when cool.
