This is great as a snack or for breakfast and also on top of yogurt. You won't be disappointed. Easy to vary the ingredients and substitute other nuts or flaked coconut, etc. Also makes a great gift at the holidays. Just put in a small mason jar, attach a copy of the recipe, and wrap it up with a fun cereal bowl. My kids' teachers loved to leave the jar on their desk to snack on.

The title more or less says it all...I got tired of my other granola so I decided to switch up a few things, and I definitely like this modified version better.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 55m

Yield 7 cups, 7 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/3 cups whole almonds
3 cups dried Quaker Oats
1 cup oat bran
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons molasses
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 1/2 cups red raisins or 1 1/2 cups golden raisins

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
  • In a large bowl, toss the almonds, oats, bran, and cinnamon.
  • In a small saucepan, combine the honey, molasses, oil, and syrup over medium heat.
  • Warm and stir until the mixture begins to foam, then QUICKLY remove from heat.
  • Pour mixture over the nuts and grains and mix thoroughly.
  • Pour the granola into a large, rimmed baking sheet in an even layer.
  • Bake for 40 minutes, stirring every 10, until everything is nice and toasted.
  • Allow the mixture to cool before adding in the raisins.
  • Once throroughly cooled, this granola can be stored in an airtight container for up to a month-- but it will probably disappear long before then!

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients: Use organic, non-GMO oats, nuts, and seeds for the best flavor and nutritional value.
  • Adjust sweetness to your preference: If you like your granola less sweet, reduce the amount of honey or maple syrup. For a sweeter granola, feel free to add more sweetener or even mix in some chocolate chips or dried fruit.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet: Spread the granola evenly on a baking sheet so that it bakes evenly. If the granola is too crowded, it will steam instead of toast.
  • Stir the granola halfway through baking: This will ensure that it browns evenly.
  • Store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks: You can also freeze the granola for up to 3 months.
