Homemade Granola Crumble
I am on a quest to make my kid's snacks healthier. If I can make homemade granola, then why buy the prepackaged artificially colored, flavored and preserved version? This recipe is supposed be to be cut into rectangles. I found that it did not have enough "stick to it." The "sticking" ingredient is honey. If I used more then the 1/2 cup recommended, then honey would over-power the taste. I chose this recipe because it contained no butter or oils. IF there is any left on Monday, I am going to put some in baggies, and give them to the kids for their school snack. This granola would taste good over ice cream, or baked apples.
2 cups oats
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup honey
** any dried fruit, nuts, seeds or mini chocolate chips (I chose a 1/2 cup raisins and a 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips)
- Mix all ingredients and press into a greased 11 x 13 inch pan
- The dough will be dry and crumbly, so press until dough forms with pan
- Bake at 325 degrees. Cook entirely for 20 minutes, or until edges are browned
- Cool entirely. Break into chunks
