Description

A festive version of granola with bright cranberries and pepitas.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups Rolled Oats
  • ½ cups Wheat Germ
  • ½ cups Flax Seed (optional)
  • 1 Tablespoon Cinnamon
  • 1 cup Slivered Almonds
  • 1 cup Flaked Coconut (optional)
  • 1 cup Raw Pepitas
  • 1 cup Dried Cranberries
  • ¼ cups Coconut Oil Or Vegatable Oil
  • ½ cups Maple Syrup
  • ¼ cups Honey
  • 2 Tablespoons Water
  • 1 cup Dark Chocolate Chips, Chopped

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 300 F.
2. Combine oats, wheat germ, flax seeds, cinnamon, almonds, coconut, pepitas and cranberries in a large bowl.
3. In a separate bowl combine coconut oil or vegetable oil, maple syrup, honey and water. (Note: I used coconut oil and added all the wet ingredients together in a sauce pan on low heat to melt the oil.)
4. Add the honey mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until all the oats are evenly coated. Transfer wet granola evenly onto two large cookie sheets that you’ve lined with parchment paper.
5. Cook for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes.
6. Remove from oven and allow granola to completely cool before serving. Don’t worry if the granola doesn’t seem completely crunchy after coming out of the oven. It will crisp up once completely cooled. When completely cooled, mix in chocolate.

This recipe looks delicious! But it seems you’ve left out the chocolate in the list of ingredients….
