Granola

Often I find families get stuck in a breakfast rut eating the same things day in and day out. Store bought cereal and granola can be very high in sugar, and other ingredients such as preservatives which whenever possible are best to avoid. Store bought cereal and granola are also really expensive. 

This is a quick and easy homemade granola recipe that everyone will approve of. This recipe makes a lot which is great because you can make it when you have more time and then the whole family can enjoy it the rest of the week. Be sure to choose gluten free oats and vanilla if you want this to be a gluten free granola. This recipe was inspired by one from 'Babycakes covers the classics'. 



4 cups       Gluten Free Oats
3/4 tsp      Salt
1 Tbsp      Cinnamon
1 tsp         Ground ginger
1 1/2 cups Unsweetened coconut, shredded
1/2 cup      Pecans
1/2 cup      Cashews
1/2 cup      Dried Cranberries
1/2 cup      Currants
1/2 cup      Hemp seeds
1 Tbsp       Vanilla
1/2 cup      Coconut oil, melted
1/3 cup      Agave

1. Combine oats, salt, cinnamon, ginger, coconut, pecans, cashews, cranberries, currants, and hemp seeds. 
2. Add the vanilla, coconut oil, and agave and mix together until oat mixture is coated. 
3. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
4. Spread oat mixture onto cookie sheets.
5. Bake in 325F oven for 15 minutes. Stir. Continue baking for another 15 minutes until golden.
