My Healthy Homemade Granola

Homemade Granola are the best as compared to shelf-bought ones, as we can fine-tune it to give us optimal health benefit, such as sugar contents; types of nuts and seeds of our preferences which gives us benefits than harm to our body (as each individual's health situation is different); not to mention it is much, much fresher as 'made to consume'; and many more.  Thumbs Up to my Healthy Granola!

Ingredients:
1 cup organic rolled oats
1 cup bubble rice
Small pinch of salt
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 cup honey
1/2 tsp. McCormick Pure Vanilla Extract
2 tbsp. melted unsalted butter
50g. almond flake
2 tbsp. unsweetened coconut flake
2 tbsp. dried cranberries (chopped)

Methods:

  1. In a large bowl combine oats, bubble rice, salt and ground cinnamon.
  2. In another bowl combine honey, melted butter and vanilla extract.
  3. Pour the mixed ingredients of (2) into (1) and mix well with a rubber spatula.
  4. In a lined baking sheet, spread the mixed ingredients evenly with the rubber spatula.
  5. Bake in a preheated oven of 150 degree Celsius for 30 minutes; stirring every 10 minutes to ensure the granola are evenly baked.
  6. After 30 minutes, add almond flakes, coconut flakes and dried cranberries; mix with a rubber spatula; and continue to bake for another 15 minutes, stirring once in between.  Once the granola is crispy, it is done.
  7. Remove from oven, let it rest on a wire rack until completely cool down.
  8. Store granola in airtight glass bottles.
Freshly out from the oven!

Notes:
Healthy Granola makes good healthy snacks; I use it as toppings for my homemade salads; and also with milk for breakfast or any time of the day, whenever I am hungry.
