Chocolate And Cherries Granola Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, combine granola, cereal, cherries, chocolate chips, and salt.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together honey, egg whites, and butter.
• Stir honey mixture into cereal mixture to combine, then press firmly into a parchment-lined 9-by-13-inch baking pan. Bake until golden and firm, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool completely, then lift out of pan and cut into squares. Store at room temperature in an airtight container up to 3 days.

Steps:

• Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with a piece of parchment paper that is large enough to go up all sides of the pan.
• Combine oats, rice cereal, coconut, almonds, and cherries in a large mixing bowl and set aside.
• Combine honey, peanut butter, brown sugar, coconut oil, vanilla extract, and salt in a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat until brown sugar is melted; continue to simmer for 1 minute more. Pour heated mixture into the dry ingredients and stir to fully combine. Stir in chocolate chips.
• Pour granola into the prepared baking pan and press firmly with a nonstick spatula or lightly oiled hands to tightly compact and distribute evenly throughout.
• Refrigerate for 2 hours.
• Remove from the refrigerator and slice into 20 equal portions. Tightly wrap individually in plastic wrap or serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
• Combine brown sugar, maple syrup, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, salt, cayenne pepper, and cocoa powder in a bowl. Whisk thoroughly. Add oats and almonds. Toss and smear the mixture together using a spatula until well coated. Spread mixture evenly over a silicone-lined baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Toss granola with a fork, breaking up any clumps to get a finer texture. Continue baking until desired texture is reached, 30 to 60 minutes more. Sprinkle some granola onto a plate; if it clinks, it is ready. Turn off the oven and leave granola inside the oven to dry and cool to room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
• In a large mixing bowl, stir together the oats, pecans, coconut, wheat germ, brown sugar and salt.
• Combine the the oil, honey, water and vanilla. Add to oat mixture and toss until well combined.
• Spread the mixture evenly on a cookie sheet.
• Bake for 30-40 minutes or until lightly browned, stirring every 10 minutes to keep the mixture from sticking.
• Allow to cool.
• Stir in the cherries and chocolate chips.
• Store in an air tight container.
