CHEWY, NUTTY, HEALTHY GRANOLA BARS



Chewy, Nutty, Healthy Granola Bars image

Chewy, nutty, chocolaty, and packed with tasty energy, no one will ever know these bars are low-fat and healthy! They're very easy to make and you can pack in everyone's favorite nuts and fruits. My family has now stopped buying Kashi® and chewy bars because we love these so much. These are gluten-free when made with rice flour and appear to be professionally made thanks to the small spoonful of corn syrup that keeps everything tightly combined and gives the bars a nice shine. Have fun experimenting with different combinations of nuts, dried fruits, and toppings! Almond butter works well, too!

NUTTY GRANOLA



Nutty Granola image

A very easy-to-make granola recipe that is delicious and the best snack ever. All the girls at my office eat this with yogurt every day. It's awesome! If you don't have some of the dry ingredients, just add more of what you do have. Walnuts are a fine substitute for pecans. You can also try dried blueberries instead of or with the cranberries.

NUTTY FRUIT FREE GRANOLA



Nutty Fruit Free Granola image

I don't like fruit (weird I know!) so buying granola/museli is a bit hard. I was looking for a recipe that didn't include fruit and found one from Feasts and Fotos (http://feastsandfotos.wordpress.com/2008/11/04/homemade-granola/). I've adapted it a bit.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of oats. Old-fashioned oats, quick oats, and steel-cut oats can all be used to make granola. Each type of oat has a different texture and flavor, so experiment to find the combination you like best.
  • Choose your nuts and seeds wisely. Nuts and seeds add crunch, flavor, and healthy fats to granola. Some popular choices include almonds, walnuts, pecans, sunflower seeds, and flax seeds.
  • Sweeten your granola naturally. Honey, maple syrup, and agave nectar are all natural sweeteners that can be used to add sweetness to granola. You can also use dried fruits, such as raisins, cranberries, and cherries.
  • Add some spices. Spices can add a lot of flavor to granola. Some popular choices include cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet. When baking granola, it's important to spread it out in a single layer on the baking sheet. This will help it cook evenly and prevent it from becoming too clumpy.
  • Store your granola properly. Granola can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. You can also freeze granola for up to 3 months.

Conclusion:

Granola is a delicious and versatile breakfast cereal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's a good source of fiber, protein, and healthy fats. Granola can also be a healthy snack or dessert. With so many different recipes to choose from, there's sure to be a granola recipe that everyone will love.
