  • DIRECTIONS:

  2. In a saucepan, heat the wet ingredients and stir over a low heat until fully combined 
  3. Combine dry ingredients in a bowl 
  4. Pour wet mixture over the dry mixture, making sure to coat it evenly
  5. Pour the mixture over two baking sheets. 
  6. Place both trays in oven and set the timer for 10 minutes. 
  7. Once the 10 minutes is up, stir both mixtures and switch the bottom pan with the top. 
  8. Place in oven for the last 10 minutes. 
  9. Remove trays and let them cool. 
  10. Once granola is fully cooled off, add your favorite fixes. I suggest slices of apricot and raisins, however my mom has added banana chips, chocolate chips, and even baked coconut slices.
