Vanilla Scented Granola Recipe
It is to die for, actually it’s to live for. I hope it brings you as much enjoyment as it does me!
Ingredients
Nonstick vegetable oil spray
4 cups old-fashioned oats
1 cup sliced almonds
1/2 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons sugar
4 teaspoons vanilla extract
Preparation
Position rack in middle of oven and preheat to 300°F. Lightly spray large baking sheet with nonstick spray. Mix next 5 ingredients in large bowl. Combine oil, honey, and sugar in small saucepan; bring to simmer over medium heat. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla. Pour hot liquid over oat mixture; stir well. Using hands, toss mixture until thoroughly mixed.
Spread granola on prepared baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes. Transfer sheet to rack; cool granola completely. (Can be made 2 weeks ahead. Store in airtight container at room temperature.)
I have so many wonderful memories of enjoying this granola with the children I babysit and my stats class. I hope you not only love this granola but you love the memories you create while sharing the delectable clusters!
Love Always,
Casey
