Making your own delicious homemade granola is super easy! And so yummy!

Ingredients

  • 3 cups Uncooked Rolled Oats (not Instant/Quick Cooking)
  • 4 Tablespoons Light Brown Sugar, Packed
  • ¼ teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoons Kosher Salt
  • ⅓ cups Honey
  • 1 Tablespoon Maple Syrup
  • ¼ cups Vegetable Oil
  • ½ teaspoons Vanilla Extract
  • ⅔ cups Dried Fruit, Diced (I Used Half Dried Apricots And Half Raisins)
  • ½ cups Roasted Almonds (I Used Whole Almonds)

Preparation

Preheat oven to 300 F.

In a large bowl, combine the oats, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt.

In a separate bowl, combine the honey, maple syrup, oil and vanilla extract.

Pour the honey mixture into the oat mixture and stir to combine. Mix until the oat mixture is thoroughly coated.

Evenly spread the mixture onto a rimmed baking sheet that you’ve lined with parchment paper.

Place in the oven and bake for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, gently stir the mixture, spread it evenly again, and continue to bake for an additional 5-10 minutes or until lightly golden brown. Be careful not to let it burn.

Once lightly golden brown, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool to room temperature, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. The granola will harden as it cools.

Once cooled, move the granola to a large bowl. Add the chopped fruit and almonds and stir to combine.

Store in an airtight container.
