My Favorite Granola Recipe

Picture
​Store bought granola is expensive and honesty I do not like it as much as homemade granola.  You can easily use this recipe as a base and make a ton of different variations to enjoy!
 
Ingredients:
 
-4 cups of rolled oats
-1 ½ cup raw nuts or seeds such as pecans, pumpkin seeds, walnuts, almonds
- ½ cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 3/4 teaspoon of salt
- ½ teaspoon of cinnamon
- ½ cup melted coconut oil – you can use olive oil or avocado oil as well
- ½ cup maple syrup or liquid honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
-1/2 cup of dried fruit such as raisins, dried cranberries, chopped dried apricots
 
Directions:
 
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper
 
Combine the oats, nuts and coconut in a bowl. Add the salt and cinnamon and gently stir. Add the oil and the maple syrup (or honey) and stir until combined.
 
Bake the granola until it is golden brown, about 20-25 mins, stirring half way. The granola will crisp up as it cools.
 
Let the granola cool fully then break it apart and add your dried fruit (or chocolate chips if you’d like!).
 
Store your granola in an air tight container for up to two weeks or in the freezer for up to 3 months.

    Tamara Schmidt

    ​My Name is Tamara Schmidt. I live with my husband, my beautiful daughter and our two dogs in Edmonton, Alberta. I am a classically trained pianist with over 12 years of teaching experience. I have a diploma in Occupational Therapy Assisting through Grant MacEwan University and prior to having my daughter I worked in pediatrics at the Glenrose Rehabilitation Hospital on a psychiatric unit and in their school rehabilitation program coordinating art programs and aiding the children with their fine and gross motor skills. After having my daughter I began working at Montessori Preschool where I created and currently teach their music program.
    Along with my love of music I love creating!! From crafts to soaps to clothing...if I can make it myself I will!!
    My daughter and I love spending our time painting, drawing, or making crafts out of our recyclables or things we find outside. We also love spending time outdoors enjoying what mother nature has to offer. 
    My perfect day would include time with my family (preferably doing something active outdoors) an opportunity to play the piano and or sing, and a chance to create something with my hands.
