Breadmaker Granola image

Make healthy Granola to use in trail mix or over yogurt for a healthy breakfast...in your breadmaker! I use about a 1/3 cup scoop of this over about 1/3 cup - 1/2 cup plain natural yogurt for my breakfast every day. I also found this to be an easy, filling and healthy camping breakfast with the individual size yogurts thrown in the cooler. Choose your own combo of nuts and dried fruits...for a special treat, add some dark chocolate chips after it has cooled.

Time 1h40m

Yield 7 cups, 30 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 1/2 cups oats
1/2 cup raw sesame seeds (shelled)
1/2 cup raw pumpkin seeds (shelled)
1 cup nuts (slivered almonds, walnuts, filberts etc)
3 tablespoons pumpkin butter (or natural peanut butter)
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup ground flax seeds (or bran or wheat germ)
1/4 cup honey
3 tablespoons unsweetened applesauce
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 cups dried fruit (I use rasins and chopped apricots)

Steps:

  • Put all ingredients except the dried fruit in the breadmaker. Set to jam cycle and run. This will produce well-toasted but not burnt granola. If you like it a little less toasted, simply take it out before the time is up.
  • Add dried fruit after the cycle is finished.
  • Tips:.
  • Use a few tablespoons of orange juice concentrate instead of applesauce for an orangy flavor. This is would taste good with Craisins sweetened dried cranberries at the end.
  • If you like crispy, lumpy granola then add 1/2 cup of flour mixed with 1/4 tsp baking soda and a quarter cup of fruit juice concentrate.
  • If you want to use this as more of a trail mix than a yogurt topping it might be better to omit the ground flax.
  • I use a pair of scissors to cut up the apricots, but I'm sure a knife and chopping board would work just as well.
