Easy and quick homemade granola
Granola is, probably, one of the most popular breakfast and snack foods consisting in a mixture of rolled oats, nuts, and sugar or honey. Its light weight and caloric content make it ideal for hikers, campers and athletes alike. It is usually eaten with yogurt, milk, or fruits but in reality it will fit any type of combination.
Like everything made at home, homemade granola feels healthier because you can control the amount of sugar in it. Moreover, you can let your imagination run wild making different combinations of nuts and dried fruits and presenting yourself with a different treat every day. In this case, a delicious and healthy meal option, it will require only 20 minutes of your time, or even less.
Here it is my recipe for about 4 cups of granola:
In a bowl combine 1/2 cup of brown sugar, 1/2 cup of almonds (you can use sliced almonds or whole. If using whole, cut them in half), 1/2 cup of sunflower seeds, 1/2 cup of dried cranberries, 2 cups of rolled oats, 1/4 cup of olive oil, 2 tablespoons of maple syrup, and a pinch of salt. Mix everything well and transfer the mixture to a baking sheet covered with parched paper. Distribute the granola evenly and place in a preheated oven (350ºF) for about 15 minutes, or until de mixture turns golden in color. When done, let it cool and enjoy the taste of healthiness in whatever way you find more appetizing.
Bon appetit!!
