Hi Pro Glow Granola



I don't know how many granola recipes I read before I finally made some on my own. It's so bonehead easy and such a good deal, I really can't imagine going back unless it's some special granola "varietal". What's great about making it home is you control the fat and sweeteners. This one is very easy and yummy.

Hi Pro Glow Granola

Yields about 2 Quarts

1/2 pound whole oats
1/4 pound chopped walnuts
1/4 pound sunflower seeds
1/4 pound pumpkin seeds
2 t. Chinese 5 Spice Powder
1/3 C grapeseed oil
1/2 C grade B maple syrup
1/4 pound dried cranberries

Preheat oven to 350
In large bowl, combine all dry ingredients except cranberries. In a liquid measuring cup, combine liquids and pour into bowl, stirring to combine all ingredients. Spread mixture on a baking sheet and bake for about 10 minutes. Stir and return to oven for another 7-10 minutes or until crispy, but be careful not to burn.

Let cool, add dried cranberries and store in an airtight container for up to 3 weeks.
