Cranberry Almond Granola
This healthy granola packs a secret punch of veggies! Sweetened with not only honey, and a teensy bit of brown sugar, but also utilizing the natural sugars in carrots.
Servings: 24
Ingredients
- 1 cup finely grated carrots
- 1 Tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 3 cups old fashioned oats
- 1 cup sliced almonds
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup dried cranberries
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 285 degrees. In a large bowl, combine the grated carrots, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Add to this the oats and almonds. In a small bowl, combine the honey, vegetable oil, and vanilla, stirring to combine. (It will still be a little bit separated, the goal is just to get them as mixed as possible.) Pour over the oats, almonds, and carrots, mixing until everything is well coated.
- Spread evenly over a baking sheet.
- Bake at 285 degrees for 25 minutes, then remove and stir.
- Bake for another 25 minutes. The granola should be lightly toasted and brown all over.
- Add in the cranberries and let cool completely before storing.
Notes
Will keep for up to 2 weeks in an air tight container.
