Best Cherry Almond Granola Recipes
CHERRY, ALMOND AND CINNAMON GRANOLA
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Toss the oats, coconut, almonds, and cherries together in a large bowl. Pour the vegetable oil and honey over the oat mixture. Add the cinnamon, and stir with a wooden spoon until all the oats and nuts are coated with the liquids. Pour onto a sheet pan. Bake, stirring occasionally with a spatula, until the mixture turns a nice, even golden brown, about 25 to 30 minutes.
- Remove the granola from the oven and allow to cool, stirring occasionally. Store the cooled granola in an airtight container.
CHERRY-ALMOND GRANOLA CRISP
For all the cobbler and crisp lovers, here's a simple dish that you can eat for breakfast or dessert. Chewy clusters of almonds and oats brown in the oven after getting coated in a nutty and floral browned-butter honey syrup. While the granola clusters caramelize, the bed of sweet cherries they rest over turns tender and juicy. Warm out of the oven, this crisp belongs in a bowl with your favorite yogurt, some of the warm cherry sauce drizzled over top, and maybe even a good shaving of dark chocolate or orange zest, if you have some.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spread out the cherry halves in the bottom of an 8-inch square (or 9-inch round) baking dish. Set aside.
- In a small saucepan, add the honey, butter and salt. Bring to a foaming boil over medium heat, then cook 3 to 4 minutes until the honey thickens, stirring often so it never burns. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla - it will spatter slightly - then fold in the almonds and oats, continuing to stir until the oats absorb all the honey syrup.
- Drop spoonfuls of the mixture across the cherries, and bake for 22 to 25 minutes or until the almonds are almost a mahogany brown and the cherries are tender and juicy. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes, so the granola hardens slightly, then serve with yogurt.
CHERRY-ALMOND GRANOLA WITH YOGURT
Really monitor that granola. Normally, cooks will tell you not to open an oven, but there is a very fine line between roasty toasty and burnty turdy. What you are doing is giving the granola a brief respite from the heat, so as to gradually toast it.

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.
CHERRY ALMOND GRANOLA
Skim milk turns this crunchy snack into a healthy breakfast cereal, while a dollop of low-fat yogurt makes it a delicious dessert. Try adding a little baking cocoa to the brown sugar for a flavor twist. -Deborah Purdue of Freeland, Michigan.

CHERRY-ALMOND COCONUT GRANOLA
Steps:
- 1. Heat the oven to 275 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Sprinkle the coconut in a single layer on the parchment paper and toast just until some of the edges of the coconut begin to color but the coconut is still mostly white, 3 to 7 minutes (timing will vary depending on how finely the coconut is shredded). Remove and set aside to cool (leave the parchment paper on the baking sheet). 2. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large pot over low heat. Stir in the honey, vanilla and salt, then stir in the oats, almonds and sesame seeds. Add the brown sugar and stir gently until everything is completely combined. Transfer the granola to the parchment-lined baking sheet, breaking up any clumps so the granola is spread out in a single layer. 3. Toast the granola, stirring every 15 to 20 minutes, until the mixture is golden brown, about 40 to 60 minutes. Remove the tray and set aside to cool, then transfer the granola to a large bowl. Add the toasted coconut and cherries, stirring well to combine.
