For those who have a higher carb allowance, here's a whole-grain granola to eat for breakfast or snacks. This recipe is comparable to some of the commercial granolas on the market, but still lower in carbs than a few of the brands. Sometimes it's easier just to make your own rather than search for the brands with the least amount of sugar and the most fiber. Ingredients:
2 cups regular oats |
1 cup wheat germ |
1/4 cup flaxseed |
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/3 cup vegetable oil |
1/4 cup apple juice |
1 tablespoon honey |
1/2 cup sliced almonds |
1/3 cup flaked sweetened coconut |
1/2 cup raisins |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 250°.
2. Combine first 5 ingredients in a large bowl; stir well. Combine sweetener, oil, juice, and honey. Pour over dry mixture, stirring well to coat. Spoon mixture onto a jelly roll pan; spread evenly. Bake at 250° for 45 minutes.
3. Stir in almonds and coconut; bake an additional 30 minutes. Cool; stir in raisins. Store in an airtight container.
