About a year and a half ago we decided to make our own granola as part of our breakfast offerings. We perused the internet and after careful studying came up with the recipe I will share today. It has become one of our most popular items as well as most oft requested recipes.
Beazley House Granola Recipe
2 Cups of rolled oats (not instant)
1 cup toasted almonds
½ cup toasted pecans
¼ cup sesame seeds
½ cup toasted sunflower seeds
½ cup sweetened, flaked coconut
½ cup dried cherries
½ cup dried cranberries
¼ cup canola oil (not olive oil)
½ cup honey
- Mix the oats, nuts and seeds in large bowl.
- Measure oil into a measuring cup and swirl it around before pouring into bowl.
- Measure out the honey in the same unwashed cup. The oil will keep the honey from sticking to the cup.
- Toss everything together until evenly coated and then pour out into a cookie sheet with a lip (jellyroll pan).
- Bake at 300º F for 30 minutes, turning it with a spatula about every ten minutes. Everything should be evenly golden brown.
- When it is finished cooking, return the baked granola to the mixing bowl, add the cherries and cranberries and stir to combine. Stir gently several times as it cools, so that it doesn’t clump together.
- ENJOY!!
Serving suggestions:
- Serve in a bowl with cold or warm milk.
- Blend with fresh fruit and yogurt to make a parfait.
