Made from scratch, granola is a tasty and healthy munchie you don’t have to feel guilty about eating. This recipe features clean and simple ingredients and natural sweetness from maple syrup and dried fruit. Many brands of rolled oats are processed in facilities that also process wheat and other gluten-filled ingredients, so be sure to check labels for certified gluten-free oats at your local grocery store. Ingredients 3 cups certified gluten-free rolled oats ? cup sweetened shredded coconut ? teaspoon kosher salt 1/3 cup maple syrup 1 tablespoon canola oil ? cup sliced almonds 1 cup dried cranberries Preparation Preheat oven to 325°F. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper; set aside. Combine gluten free oats, coconut, salt, maple syrup, and canola oil in a large bowl. Toss ingredients well and pour out onto a prepared baking sheet. Bake, stirring occasionally, until golden brown (15 to 20 minutes). Remove from oven to cool. Once cool, mix in almonds and dried cranberries. Enjoy right away or store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks. Ingredient Variations and Substitutions Bake up the base ingredients of oats and coconut and then change up the additional ingredients as desired. Instead of almonds and cranberries, try dried apricots with pistachios, dried blueberries and pecans, or dried banana and peanuts. Instead of chewy dehydrated fruits, experiment with crunchy freeze dried berries for an entirely different flavor, texture, and color. Cooking and Serving Tips Sprinkle this sweet and crunchy granola over Greek yogurt or fruit salad. Mix into gluten-free pancake batter or a make a crunchy topping for muffins. Adding the granola and nuts after the other ingredients have baked ensures the dried fruits and nuts won't burn. To boost the flavor of the nuts ahead of time, you can toast them in a dry pan for a few minutes until fragrant. Toasting will develop their natural oils and enhance their flavor.
