Make Up Granola

Hello everyone! Sorry I missed posting last week, I actually didn't get a chance to make dinner so there was no recipe to review. This week to make up for last week's shortcomings I'll be posting 2 recipes this week. First up a breakfast idea then stay tuned for this week's dinner.

Original recipe credit to the Minimalist Baker blog http://minimalistbaker.com/banana-bread-granola/ 

What you'll need:
3 cups Old Fashioned Oats
3/4 cup Almonds (or whatever nuts you prefer, Walnuts are good too)
1/2 Tbs Cinnamon
1/4 cup Honey
1/4 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 ripe Banana, mashed


Preheat your oven to 350 F. Place your oats, nuts and cinnamon in your baking dish. It is not necessary to grease the pan.


In a pot over Medium heat mix your banana, oil and honey for about 5 minutes or until the oil has completely combined with the other ingredients.


Pour your banana syrup over your dry ingredients.


Stir everything together until all your oats are wet.


Put your pan in the oven for 25-30 minutes. Stir half way through to make sure all the oats are getting toasted.


All done! I love all the granola recipes I've found and adapted from the Minimalist Baker's blog; they're easy and delicious. 5 stars 

Enjoy your granola in the morning with some yogurt then go out and conquer the day.
