242
Crunchy, creamy, and refreshing! The dry ingredients we need. Here we have all the dry ingredients together. Pour the oil into the well mixed dry ingredients. Pour the maple syrup. Spread mixture evenly between two baking sheets. Bake, turning mixture frequently and rotating the pans. About 1 hour or so, prepare all the dried fruits we need. Mix well all the dried fruits together in a bowl. Add half of the dried fruits into each baking sheet. Stir until well combined. Let cool on the sheets completely. I had it as my breakfast this morning.

Granola is great for breakfast, packed with nutrition and very filling. Making your own is always better, lots of nuts, dried fruits and real maple syrup with some yogurt or milk give you all the energies you need to start a beautiful day.

Add the oil, applesauce and maple syrup or honey into dry ingredients, and stir until well combined. Use you hand to mix both dry and wet ingredients together until well incorporated, and no dry ingredients can be found.

Pour the oil into the well mixed dry ingredients.
Pour the maple syrup.

Spread mixture evenly between two baking sheets and bake, turning mixture frequently about every 15 minutes and rotating pans until the mixture is dry, golden and slightly brown, which takes about 1 hour or longer.
