Almond Honey Granola Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle. Oil a 4-sided sheet pan or line with parchment paper.
• Stir together oats, almonds, and sesame seeds in a large bowl. Heat oil, honey, cardamom, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small saucepan over low heat (or in a microwave) until heated through. Stir into oat mixture.
• Spread evenly in sheet pan and bake, stirring once, until golden, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Cool granola completely in pan (it will crisp as it cools), then stir in fruit.

Steps:

• Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and heat oven to 325°.
• Spray two baking sheets with vegetable oil spray.
• In a large bowl mix the oats, bran, and almonds.
• In a smaller bowl, whisk the oil, honey vanilla, almond extract, dry milk powder, and salt.
• Pour the mixture (it will be gloppy) over the oats and stir, with your hands or a spoon, until well combined.
• Divide the mixture between the two oiled baking sheets and spread in an even layer.
• Bake for twenty minutes, stir the granola and switch the positions of the pans.
• Bake until the the oats are golden brown and almonds look well toasted another 10 to 20 minutes; don't overcook.
• Let cool completely in the pans.
• The oats may feel soft but will get crisp as they cool.
• When completely cool, stir in raisins.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. In a large pan, heat the honey and oil together until bubbling, then tip in the oats, almonds and cinnamon. Stir well until the oats are well coated, then tip onto 1-2 large baking sheets, spreading the mixture out. Bake for 20-25 mins, stirring halfway, until golden.
• Remove from the oven and, while still hot, stir in the apricots. Spread out again and press down with a spatula to cool - this will help it to clump together. Once cool, serve with yogurt or milk, and fruit, if you like. Will keep in an airtight container for 3 weeks. See 'Goes well with' for recipes using your granola.
