Home Made Granola! Yum!

I love granola. So today I decided to show you how easy it is to make your own. I found this recipe on the 100 Days of Real Food website and I just HAD to try it~ Here is the list of ingredients. Of course you could tweak this any way your heart desires. PREHEAT OVEN to 250.... 3 1/2 cups rolled oats.... 1 cup raw sliced almonds.... 1 cup raw cashew pieces (or walnuts or pecans).... 1 cup unsweetened coconut (I couldn't find unsweetened so I used sweetened).... 1/2 cup raw pumpkin seeds.... 1/2 cup raw sunflower seeds.... 2 tsp ground cinnamon.... 1 1/2 tsp ground ginger.... 1/2 tsp grated or ground nutmeg (I actually forgot to add this- HA! Just keepin' it real, here, Folks) Then, melt 6 tablespoons butter, and 1/2 cup honey in a saucepan and pour that all over your dry ingredients and stir till well coated.
Spread this onto TWO baking sheets lined with parchment paper in an even thin layer. Bake for about 75 minutes.
My house smells delicious right now....
Delish! With a spoonful of honeyed greek yogurt on top is one of my favorite ways to enjoy it~ I hope you love it!

  1. If you don't want to use butter, coconut milk, some honey and a tsp of vanilla works well.
