Cherry And Coconut Granola With Yogurt Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• In a large bowl, combine oats, almonds, coconut, sesame seeds, and cherries.
• In a separate bowl, stir together coconut oil, honey, maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt. Pour wet mixture over dry mixture and stir well to combine. Spread over a parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Bake granola until golden brown along edges, 20 to 25 minutes, tossing gently from time to time.
• Serve granola with yogurt and fruit, if desired.

Steps:

• For the granola: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a pot set over medium heat, combine the oil, brown sugar and agave and cook until bubbling, about 4 minutes. Add the agave mixture to the oats, almonds and salt in a heatproof bowl and stir to coat. Transfer this mixture to a parchment-lined baking sheet and spread into as thin of a layer as you can. Bake, stirring often to ensure even browning, until browned, about 20 minutes (see Cook's Note).
• Transfer to a mixing bowl and quickly mix in the cherries and lime zest. Allow to cool.
• For the yogurt: Split and scrape the vanilla beans into the Greek yogurt. Add the confectioners' sugar and salt, if using, and stir. Store the vanilla bean pods in the yogurt until you are ready to serve.
• Spoon the yogurt into serving dishes and top with the granola. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper. Toss the oats, coconut, pistachios, pepitas and salt in a large bowl. Warm the brown sugar, maple syrup and olive oil in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring, until the sugar dissolves. Fold the sugar mixture into the oat mixture to evenly coat.
• Spread the granola on the prepared baking sheets and bake, stirring often, until dry and lightly golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and toss with the dried sour cherries. Let cool to room temperature. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 1 month.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 275.
• In a very large bowl mix together oats, wheat bran, sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and flax seeds.
• Combine in a sauce pan olive oil,honey, vanilla, brown sugar, and salt.
• Heat on medium heat until all are dissolved and form a "syrup".
• Pour the "syrup" into the bowl of dry ingredients and mix very well, try to ensure every piece is evenly coated, stir, smash, stir.
• When all is mixed well stir in coconut and raisins.
• Put half of mixture into a glass 9x13 baking dish and spread evenly without packing down.
• If you have two glass dishes you can bake both at once.
• Bake at 275 for 40 minutes, then leaving pans in oven, turn up oven to 325 and bake for another 12-15 minutes.
• Stir granola just once when it comes out and leave it alone to cool, if there are clumps do not break them up.
• Allow to COOL COMPLETELY before removing from pan or serving.
• Store in an airtight container or gallon size freezer bags.
• Serve with milk or soy milk or rice milk as you would breakfast cereal.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325. Place oats, nuts, flax seed and coconut in the baking pan. Melt coconut oil; mix in the honey, vanilla, almond extract and salt. Pour over oats and nuts and mix well. Bake for 15 minutes and stir; 15 minutes and stir. Repeat until at desired browness. Take out and add dried fruit as desired.
