Gingersnap Granola

[Guest guest]

This is a great little granola recipe based on one I found on

CDKitchen. For the oats part, I'm sure you could substitute 4 cups

of any grains, flax seed, nuts, etc, and it would still be good. I

also upped the amount of the spices since the first batch lacked a

bit in flavor. Also, if you like things sweet, you might want to

consider adding more honey, as this was just perfect for me, and I

prefer things less sweet.

 

4 cups Bob's Red Mill Cereal 5 Grain Cereal

2 Tbsp melted butter

1/2 c honey

1 Tbsp dark molasses

2 tsp lemon zest

1 tsp vanilla

1/2 tsp powdered ginger

1/4 tsp ginger

1/8 tsp nutmeg

 

Melt butter and mix with honey - nutmeg. Pour over cereal mixture

and spread out on a oiled baking sheet. Bake in a 350 degree oven

for 20-25 minutes, until toasty brown.

Cool and store in an airtight container.

 

Enjoy!
