I've searched a long time for a tasty granola without added fat. After years of experimenting, I came up with my own. One batch should last awhile in an airtight container. Ingredients:
3 cups regular oats |
1/2 cup wheat germ |
1/2 cup wheat bran |
1/2 cup honey |
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice |
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice |
1 (6-ounce) jar pear baby food |
1 cup wheat bran flakes cereal with raisins |
1 cup crisp cross of corn and rice cereal |
1/3 cup golden raisins |
1/4 cup sunflower seeds |
1/4 cup flaked coconut |
1/4 cup chopped dates |
cooking spray |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°.
2. Spread first three ingredients on a jelly-roll pan. Bake at 350° for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from oven.
3. Reduce oven temperature to 250°.
4. Combine honey and next 5 ingredients (honey through baby food) in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil; cook 1 minute.
5. Combine oat mixture, honey mixture, bran flakes, and next 5 ingredients (bran flakes through dates); stir well. Spread mixture on a jelly-roll pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 250° for 1 hour, stirring every 20 minutes. Let cool to room temperature. Store in an airtight container.
6. Note: Sprinkle over yogurt, fresh fruit slices, or frozen yogurt as a quick topping.
