Best Cranberry Walnut Granola Recipes
CRANBERRY MAPLE WALNUT GRANOLA
I made this for holiday gifts and to have on hand for a healthier holiday snack, it is a nice way to lighten up granola using egg whites. I found the recipe in a recent 11/07 Bon Appetit Magazine and was pleasantly surprised to see the kids eating it by the handful:)

CRANBERRY-WALNUT GRANOLA
Based on a recipe from The Wholesome Junk Food Cookbook by Laura Trice. She says of this recipe, "I grew up eating homemade granola that my mom made for us and have found that having a tart fruit in the granola gives it extra pizzazz. I enjoy the cranberry-walnut combination. Walnuts have healthy oils and are so good for us. The protein and fat combination of the nut helps to make the granola more filling, providing lasting energy. Granola takes a little while to bake and makes your entire house smell good. This is a good granola for breakfast." NOTE: Add fruit to granola only after the baking is done to avoid drying out the fruit and avoid making it tough to chew and less flavorful.
