Directions
Ginger Spice Crunchy Granola, Deliciously seasonally spiced crunchy granola, excellent served with vanilla yogurt, perfect for autumn and winter potluck brunches; your whole house will smell yummy! Inspired by Crunchy Granola (Recipe #31235) , This granola is delicious, crunchy and sweet I was surprised to see there is no oil in it It has a lot of sugar so over time I may see if I can get by with less and still keep the crunchy consistency I was also surprised that this recipe doesn’t use any crystallized ginger The first time I made it I added it, but I’m not sure it added noticeable flavor beyond the ground ginger The second time I skipped the crystallized ginger and I am not noticing its absence at all I can also say that in my haste, both times I added the dried fruits (cranberries and dates) along with the nuts etc so they cooked along with everything else, and that was fine I think the granola is still great even though I missed following the recipe to the letter , I ve made many many granola recipes here on Zaar and this is a first for me using these combination of spices in the total mix- ie: cardamon, nutmeg, ginger Also, a first for me using o j in a granola recipe The total combination of ingredients work well together and makes for a very tasty granola The smell throughout the house while this is baking is wonderful A definite repeat
