Ina's Homemade Granola image

This is Ina Garten's recipe (The Barefoot Contessa) and I think it is delicious. However, I have never made any of her recipes that I didn't think was delicious. I love this over yogurt.

Time 55m

Yield 12 cups, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 cups old fashioned oats
2 cups sweetened coconut, shredded
2 cups sliced almonds
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup honey
1 1/2 cups dried apricots, diced
1 cup dried fig, diced
1 cup dried cranberries
1 cup cashews, roasted

Steps:

  • Preheat over to 350 degrees.
  • Toss, oats, coconut and almonds together in large bowl and set aside.
  • Whisk together the oil and honey in small bowl and pour over the oat mixture and stir with wooden spoon until all the oats, coconut and nuts are coated.
  • Pour into a 13x9 baking pan and bake. Stir occasionally with spatula until mixture turns a nice golden brown about 45 minutes.
  • Remove granola from oven and allow to cool, stirring occasionally. Add the apricots, figs, cranberries and cashews. You can put whatever mix of dried fruit in that you please. I have even started to put in a cup of dark chocolate chips after the oats mix has cooled.
  • Great snack!
  • Store cooled granola in airtight container.
