Ferndale Granola Recipes

THE BEST HOMEMADE GRANOLA RECIPE EVER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325F.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the oil and maple syrup.
• In a large bowl, stir together the oats and nuts, salt, and cinnamon (leave the dried fruit out for now).
• Pour the oil and maple syrup mixture over the dry ingredients and toss to thoroughly coat.
• Spread granola onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Spreading it thinly will result in a toastier taste, spreading it thickly will result in bigger clumps.
• Bake at 325F for 20 mins or until nuts smell toasted.
• Remove from oven and spread the dried fruit on top of granola and leave to cool.
• Break into pieces.
• Keep in an airtight container (I use a large Ziploc freezer bag).
