Description

A perfect blend of oats, cinnamon, and apples. Just what you need to start your fall mornings off right!

Ingredients

  • 3-½ cups Old Fashioned Oats
  • 1-½ cup Chopped Walnuts
  • ¼ cups Flax Seeds
  • 2 Tablespoons Chia Seeds
  • 1 Tablespoon Ground Cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Ginger
  • ½ teaspoons Freshly Grated Nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoons Salt
  • 1 cup Homemade Or Unsweetened Applesauce
  • ⅓ cups Maple Syrup
  • 1 Tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
  • 1-½ cup Chopped Unsweetened Dried Apples (not Freeze Dried)
  • 1 cup Unsweetened Dried Cranberries (optional)

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 325ºF. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment or a silicone baking mat.

2. In a large bowl, mix together oats, walnuts, flax seeds, chia seeds, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt. Add in applesauce, syrup, and lemon juice and stir until thoroughly combined.

3. Spread mixture onto prepared baking sheet. Bake 20 minutes then remove from oven and gently stir. Place back in oven and bake 15 minutes more. Remove sheet from oven and place on a wire cooling rack. (Some pieces of granola may still seem slightly soft. They will crisp up as the cool.)

4. With granola still on baking sheet, carefully stir in dried apples and cranberries, if using. Allow granola to cool completely before placing in an airtight container.

Keeps up to 2 weeks at room temperature. Serve alone as a snack, over yogurt or fruit, or with milk as a cereal.

I made this and it was really BLAH. No sweetness, no flavor. A great idea though.
