Easy Granola

Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 20ish minutes

4 c old fashioned oats
3/4 c sliced almonds
1/2 c shredded or flaked coconut
2 t cinnamon
1/4 t salt
1/2 c honey
1/4 c apple juice
1/2 c raisins
1/2 c dried cranberries

1. Preheat oven to 350.

2. In a large mixing bowl, combine oats, almonds, coconut, cinnamon, and salt.

3. Mix together the honey and apple juice. Pour over the oat mixture and stir to coat each piece.

4. Spread the mixture in an even layer on a cookie sheet and bake for 20 minutes until a golden color has been achieved. Be sure to stir the mixture two times during baking to avoid burning the edges.

5. Remove from oven and let cool. Once the granola is cool, add the raisins and cranberries.

ENJOY!

Note: You can really play with this recipe. Change up the dried fruits, add some pecans pieces, etc. My next batch, I am going to add some flax seeds and pearl barley. I'll let you know how it turns out.
