I also wanted to share my granola I love to add into my oatmeal

today! It's really simple and great to cure that sweet tooth fix!

 

____________________________________
Ingredients:
2 Cups Old Fashioned Oats
1 Teaspoon Cinnamon
2 Teaspoons Vanilla
2 Egg Whites
1 Tablespoon Maple Syrup
1 Cup Dried Cranberries
1/3 Cup Sweetened Shredded Coconut
1/8 Cup Crushed Walnuts
____________________________________

 

I like a lot of fruit&vanilla in mine, however this recipe

is easily adaptable! You can switch the cranberries out for

any dried fruit or a bunch of dried fruit! I added 1/8 Cup of crushed

walnuts but I forget they're even in there, next time I make this

I will definitely opt for a bigger nut like pecan halves.

Preheat the oven to about 275 while preparing all of the ingredients.

In a large bowl mix the oats, cinnamon, vanilla, & maple syrup together.

This can get pretty sticky, however I found it worked better using my hands.
After it is all incorporated add the cranberries, coconut, and walnuts.

Put in the 275 oven for about 30-45 minutes checking and stirring every 15 minutes.

 

Enjoy!
