Directions
Vanilla-Scented Granola, Great snack for everyone, or the for kids lunches or even as an after school treat! Serve for breakfast with yogurt and fruit or over ice cream for dessert Watch your time in the oven because sometimes it cooks a little quickly This recipe came from Bon Appetit, March of 2002 A few baking tips I have learned from making this recipe often: use a jelly roll pan so the granola will have maximum exposure while cooking Also, if you do like your granola to clump, do not stir while baking Allow to cool in pan for about 10 minutes or so, then run a spatula between granola and the pan to loosen You will have so many clumps you will have to break them with your hands ; ), ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!! This puts commercial granola to shame, even the fancy organic brands I didn’t mess with it until after it had cooled, and as promised, I got lots of wonderful clumps Bev, thank you for a superb recipe!, I usually follow a recipe as is to try it out Well, granola is one of those things that is a great canvas to be creative I no longer put everything in a pot on the stove use a microwaveable measuring cup to put the oil and honey and heat for about 45 seconds I sub olive oil and keep out the extra 2T if sugar I find the brown sugar and honey is sweet enough for my taste I have subbed half of the almonds for walnuts, add pumpkin, chia, and sunflower seeds, and a couple tablespoons of dried coconut flakes It comes out so good no matter the combination! I have yet to add any dried fruit
