Cranberry Orange Granola...



I can't believe it has been five years since I wrote a blog post!

Who am I?!  
Thinking I can actually figure out how this all works again is insanity... LoL

Do you love granola? Me too!

This recipe is super easy & you know exactly what all the ingredients are that you will be eating. 
NOT  like in the store bought ones.

Ingredients

2 cups whole rolled oats

1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup sliced almonds
1/2 cup unsweetened coconut flakes, optional
Zest of 1 medium orange
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon Himalayan salt
2 tablespoons melted coconut oil
1/4 cup maple syrup
2 tablespoons creamy almond butter
1/2 cup dried cranberries

Instructions


Preheat your oven to 300 degrees F & line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients & mix well. 

Pour onto your lined cookie sheet & spread out evenly.

Bake for 30 minutes, stirring halfway. Your time could be a little more or a little less. Depending on your oven. Keep a close eye on your granola after about 20 minutes. You want the granola to be a lightly golden color. The granola will crisp up as it cools. 

Store in airtight container for 2~3 weeks.

I will definitely be making this again! 

Let me know how your granola turns out & if you have any questions, please ask me!
