Best Ever Granola


I love love love love love love granola.

This is by far THE BEST granola recipe I have ever encountered! 

It is the perfect combination of sweet and salty. So much flavor is happening in your mouth, its just to die for!

Best Ever Granola
(Serves 6ish)

Mix:
-2 Cups Oats
-1/2 Tsp. salt
-1/4- 1/2 Cup of either wheat germ, coconut, or chopped nuts.

Add:
-1/4-1/2 Cup honey
-1/4 Cup oil
-1 Tsp. extract (vanilla, almond, orange, maple etc...)

To add in at the end:
-Mix in's: dried cherries, cranberries, raisins, chocolate chunks

Combine everything very well.

Spread onto a greased cookie sheet.


Bake at 325, stirring every 10 minutes until golden. Usually you only need to stir it twice. It might not look done, but granola I find can be deceiving...It crisps up as it cools.
While it is cooling, add 1/2 cup of dried fruit.



Mix in 1 cup of this trail mix when it is cooled:

This is what makes it OUT OF THIS WORLD. Trust me and do it.

Give everything a good stir, and store in a zip lock bag! 



Amen.
