GRANOLA - OATS, FRUITS & NUTS



Granola - Oats, Fruits & Nuts image

Very easy and yummy. Eat by the fistfuls or sprinkle on your cereal, yogurt or ice cream. Recipe can easily be doubled. Use any dried fruits or nuts that you like. UPDATE: 11/5/08 I added an extra 1 cup of oatmeal to the recipe to make the granola less sticky and easier to sprinkle on cereal. Either way you make it, you're in for a treat. YUM! **Please be careful with your baking time. It may take less than 20 minutes to toast. Watch carefully!

FRUIT AND NUT GRANOLA (CHRISSIE'S GRANOLA)



Fruit and Nut Granola (Chrissie's Granola) image

Originally given to me at work as a 'Hey! I made this, try it, it's vegan (I'm not vegan), you'll love it!' and I did; I really did love it. I've made it several times now and a modified version for my husband (omitted the chocolate and used deluxe mixed nuts). I have to stash some or get none in my house.
