Peanut Butter Granola



Yesterday I was re-immersing myself into the foodie blog world again and I came across this recipe. I decided to try it for breakfast and am so glad I did. If you click on the recipe title it will take you to the blog I lifted it from. My husband loved it and one of the kids tried it and really liked it too. It was the child that hates Oatmeal Tuesdays- so now I will give her the choice of granola or oatmeal. I will definitely make this one again and again and again.....

Peanut Butter Granola Cereal

  • 5 cups rolled oats- I used Bob's Red Mill 5 grain cereal
  • 1 cup sliced almonds
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • 1 cup flax seed
  • 1 cup wheat germ
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil
  • 1 cup honey
  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup raisins
  • 1 cup dried cranberries

Directions:

    1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees
    2. In a large bowl, mix dry ingredients.
    3. Heat coconut oil, honey, and peanut butter on medium heat until smooth.
    4. Evenly pour honey mixture over the dry ingredients and stir until completely combines
    5. Spread mixture over two large cookie sheets.

Bake for 20 minutes until oats and nuts are toasted. Let stand until cool. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
