Description

Don’t be intimadated by the title “homemade granola” – this is so simple you’ll be shocked! And, it’s healthy.

Ingredients

  • 1 stick Butter
  • ¾ cups Honey
  • ½ cups Packed Brown Sugar
  • 2 cups Old Fashioned Oats
  • 1-½ cup Mixed Nuts
  • 1 dash Vanilla
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • ¾ cups Craisins
  • 4 ounces, weight White Chocolate Chips (Optional)

Preparation

1. Preheat the oven to 325F. Butter an 8 inch square baking pan. Line the bottom and sides with parchment paper. (I didn’t have parchment paper, so I just greased the pan really well).

2. In a large saucepan, melt the butter with the honey and sugar and cook over moderate heat, stirring constantly until an amber caramel forms, about 5 minutes.

3. Stir in the oats, mixed nuts, vanilla, and salt and cook, stirring constantly, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the Craisins. Pour into the 8 inch pan and smush it down tightly. Put into oven and bake for 20 – 25 minutes.

4. Let cool completely before removing from the pan or it will fall apart! *If it falls apart, you can form it into “bar” shapes…and put in fridge to harden.

(You can also make this with white chocolate chips. Add 4 ounces white chocolate chips when you add the Craisins or you can use them in place of them. Beware, they will melt!)
