I made a great apple crisp out of homemade granola and a variety of apples and a few small home grown pears.
The granola I made is easy:
Pre- heat oven to 300 degrees
6 cups of old fashioned oats.
1/2 cup of crushed walnuts
1/2 cup of crushed pecans
1/2 cup of sliced almonds
4 table spoons of ground cinnamon
4 table spoons of vanilla
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/2 cup of honey or agave
Stir the ingredients in a mixing bowl.
Get a cookie sheet covered with aluminum foil. Put the mixture on it and place in oven.
Stir the mixture with a spoon every 5- 10 mins while its in oven. (don't burn your hand)
When the mixture appears golden brown / dry its ready to take out. Can take 35-45 mins
Place the cooled granola in a plastic bag and eat.
The apple crisp is easy also:
Find a mix of apples and a few small pears: Crab Apples, Green Apples, Red Apples, Pears
Peal the apples and slice thin, cube the pears into small pieces.
Mix the sliced fruit with some honey, maple syrup, and or agave. (Use as much or as little as you like)
Take 1 cup of the homemade granola and blend into a flour
Add a dash of brown sugar (use your judgement)
Add a quarter cup of coconut oil that is warmed to liquid state. Stir the granola flour and oil together .
Place granola flour mixture in a glass baking dish.
Add the apples and mix
Spread the mixture evenly.
Sprinkle regular granola mix on top
Add some dried cranberries
Bake about 30-35 mins at 300 degrees
