My grandmother and I created this homemade granola recipe one day. It is currently loved and requested by the rest of my family, including my other grandma, who used to be anti-granola! My favorite ways to serve it are with coconut Greek yogurt or just in a bowl with milk. It’s simple and awesome.
Ingredients
- nonstick cooking spray
- 4 cups old-fashioned oats
- 1 ½ cups chopped pecans
- 1 ½ cups slivered almonds
- 1 cup coconut flakes
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/3 cup honey
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- 2 cups dried cranberries (Optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and coat with nonstick cooking spray.
Step 2
Mix together oats, pecans, almonds, and coconut in a large bowl. Set aside.
Step 3
Combine oil, brown sugar, honey, maple syrup, cinnamon, vanilla, and salt in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir gently until mixture begins to boil; remove from heat. Pour over oat mixture and fold together until dry ingredients are well coated. Spread granola onto the prepared baking sheet.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Stir and continue to bake on the top rack until golden, about 5 minutes more. Remove from the oven and let cool for 20 to 30 minutes.
Step 5
Toss cooled granola with cranberries. Store in an airtight container.
