This granola is perfectly crunchy and full of wholesome goodness with just the right amount of sweetness. It’s an amazing substitute for cereal when paired with milk. For a snack, its crunchy sweetness balances out the tart creaminess on a bowl of homemade yogurt. This recipe is so easy my kids make a double batch (without my help) to keep on hand for busy days.
Ingredients:
2 c rolled oats
1/2 c sunflower seeds (or pumpkin seeds)
2 Tbsp sesame seeds
3/4 c sliced almonds
1/4 c coconut oil
1/4 c honey
Optional: 1/2 cup raisins or other dried fruit
Directions:
1) Preheat oven to 275 degrees.
2) Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
3) Put the oats, seeds and almonds on the parchment paper.
4) Melt the coconut oil and honey together. I use a glass measuring cup and microwave for 30-60 seconds until the coconut oil is melted.
5) Stir and pour the honey/oil mixture onto the dry ingredients on the parchment paper.
6) Mix until everything is coated with the oil and honey mixture, and spread it all out evenly on the parchment lined baking sheet.
7) Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour until golden brown, stirring 1-2 times to ensure even browning.
8) Let cool completely before adding optional raisins or other dried fruit.
9) Enjoy with milk or yogurt. Store in an airtight container.
