granola.

Since my morning breakfast typically consists of the same thing (plain yogurt, a little honey, raspberries, and vanilla almond whole foods granola) I decided I needed to spice it up a bit. I wanted to make my own granola so I combined a few recipes and added in a few things I really love. Here it is....

4 cups rolled oats

1/2 cup sliced almonds

about 5 seconds of Agave Nectar(gives it a little sweetness)

2 tbs. Canola oil

1 tsp. sea salt

a sprinkle of coconut (or however much you like)

a handful of dark chocolate chips

a handful of dried cranberries

a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon

Bake at 350 for 5 minutes. Take out and stir then bake for another 5 minutes.

Then put it in a Mason Jar (because you can use them for everything) and they are super cute!

I hope to get some more baking in this week/weekend! Fall makes me want to bake things all the time!

Hope you enjoy!
