Description

Crunchy, chocolatey cherry granola. So good.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
  • 1 cup Coconut Chips (or Flaked Coconut)
  • 1 cup Almonds, Roughly Chopped
  • ¼ cups Brown Sugar (lightly Packed)
  • 6 Tablespoons Maple Syrup
  • 6 Tablespoons Canola Oil
  • ½ teaspoons Kosher Salt
  • ½ cups Mini Chocolate Chips
  • ½ cups Dried Cherries, Roughly Chopped

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 250 F.  Combine the oats, coconut, almonds and brown sugar in a large bowl.  

In another bowl or measuring cup, combine the canola oil, maple syrup, and salt.  Pour the liquid into the oat mixture while stirring to combine.  Mix until the liquid is evenly distributed.

Divide the mixture between two 11×17 inch rimmed baking sheets, spreading it out so that it’s even. Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes, until it starts to brown.  I usually swap the baking sheets halfway through the baking time.

Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.  Transfer to a large airtight container and stir in the chocolate chips and dried cherries.  It will keep in an airtight container for at least 2-3 weeks, probably longer, but mine is always all gone by that point so I can’t be sure!

Makes about 7 cups of granola.

Adapted from my own favorite granola recipe which was originally adapted from Mel’s Kitchen Cafe.
