Come On Up To The House

Maple Granola

Along with making Muesli, I decided to make a granola as well. This was delicious. Not clumpy but like a granola cereal you would purchase. I will make this again, but would also like to try a clumpier, crunchier recipe as well.

Maple Granola

3 cups rolled oats
1 cup sliced almonds
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup sweetened coconut
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup canola oil
1/3 cup maple syrup
3/4 tsp kosher salt

Mix first 5 ingredients through brown sugar together in large bowl.  In a separate bowl, combine oil, syrup and salt together. Pour wet ingredients over oat mixture and mix well. Pour onto two baking sheets and put into a preheated 250°F oven. Bake for 1 hour 15 minutes. Toss every 15 minutes.

I ate mine with milk and strawberries. Paul likes his with yogurt and fruit better.

UPDATE – After starting weight watchers…I am measuring granola and keep to the serving size. It is 7 points per 1/3 cup serving for this granola. It is delicious, so I try to sprinkle it on yogurt and use less now that I know how many points it is worth.
