Hello! This is my first time writing, but wasting no time I will be getting straight to today's subject which is:
Homemade Granola!
yup. thats a decent amount of granola.

So basically this is super easy to make; the hardest part being the collection of ingredients which brings us to the next step of this culinary equation

You will need:
3 Cups of Rolled Oats (more or less depending on how much you want- I used 3 and I got this heaping bowl)
1 Cup of Almonds
1 Cup of Walnuts/hazelnuts
1/4 Cup Flaxseeds/sunflower seeds
1/2 Cup of Maple Syrup
1 Cup dried Fruit
Anything else you feel the need to put in this mixture


The oven should be preheated to 350.

Next: You wanna mix the dried stuff together pretty evenly first and leave the dried fruit for last. you DONT want the dried fruit involved in anything till the last minute. Then you just kinda mix the maple syrup in it till its just sticky and great. I used a cookie pan and just dumped the uncooked granola on it and spread it evenly over it and it seemed to do well. Place this in the oven for 30 minutes.
After waiting you should have yourself some deliciously browned granola (:  Add the dried fruit and whatever else (I put in blueberries because reasons.) Pretty sure this can be used for some pretty great breakfast cereal or a great snack! Side note: It tastes fantastic with almond milk
