GRANOLA

Maple Pecan and Cranberry Granola

I often make granola for myself, though I don’t post the recipe, because it is mostly the same — swap out the nuts, swap out the dried fruit, but there is usually maple syrup and of course oats and sunflower seeds. This time I made Maple Pecan and Cranberry Granola. not too sweet, a little tart and definitely delicious. I mostly eat my granola with yogurt (blatant product endorsement: Cabot Whole Milk Vanilla Greek Yogurt is excellent), but would also be great with milk for breakfast or ice cream for dessert.
Yum yum.

Coconut Almond and Honey Granola

I’ve never been that much of a granola or Müsli much, but this might as well be called “The Granola that Changed My Mind Granola” — this Coconut Almond and Honey Granola is really really good. I’m happily surprised actually. I paired it for the last few days with coconut yogurt and maybe an extra drizzle of honey as an afternoon snack, and it’s been great. Perfect for breakfast or a pick me up snack. All natural, gluten free. Make a big batch (this recipe) and it will last you a few weeks.

Apple Almond Granola Bars

I thought that I would go healthy this week and make some granola bars. This is my go-to recipe — not too hard that you will break your teeth, but a little soft and definitely flavorful. If you search the site, you’ll see a bunch of variations; this time I decided to go ith apples and almond slices, with a bit of cinnamon and vanilla. Great pick me up afternoon snack!

Bear Naked (Granola) Brownies

What happens when you add granola — and this case, super-yummy Bear Naked Honey Almond Granola — to from-scratch brownies? Something totally decadent. Sort of a cross between a granola bar and a brownie. And because it has granola in it, I guess it’s healthyish, right? Brownies for breakfast!

Maple Pecan and Cranberry Granola Bars

Starting the year off with something slightly more healthy than cookies, I’ve made granola bars. This is an all purpose recipe that lets you swap out the type of nut (almonds or pecans or cashews or peanuts) and the type of fruit (I’ve made these with dried apricots, cranberries, cherries and raisins). If you can’t find pecan butter, or if it is too expensive (because wow, it can be very expensive!), stick with almond butter as it is the most neutral of the nut butters. I’ve not tried it will sunflower seed butter, but I will eventually and will report back on that too.
