I have been craving a really tasty, crunchy sweet and salty granola for probably 11 years now. A couple of weeks ago I have in and bought a gf brand and it was alright but was not crunchy and went stale the day after opening. Not worth $5 for less than a pound of stale treats....so I set out to make my own. My first attempt was a recipe from food network...and was pretty good. Just still didn't fill this craving. I think you'll love this recipe from my latest batch. I'm a happy, happy baker:)
Ingredients:
2 Cups Water
1 Stick Butter
4 Cups dark brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 Tbsp Honey
Place in a large microwave safe bowl and microwave on high heat for 5 minutes.
Preheat oven to 275
Dry Ingredients:
9 Cups GF Rolled Oats
2 tsp Cinnamon
2 tsp Salt
2 Cups Walnuts
1 Cup Hazelnuts
Mix well and let stand for about 5 minutes. Mix well again and let stand for another 5 minutes.
Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper. Spoon half of the mix onto each sheet and spread evenly to the edges. Do not make flat.
Bake for about 25 minutes and stir well. Bake another 30 minutes until dark golden brown.
Remove from oven and cool completely. When cool, break apart clusters a bit and place into airtight containers like food storage bags or whatever you have. This recipe will stay nice and crunchy for a couple of weeks with frequent opening. If you place it into smaller bags it will stay crunchy longer.
I hope you enjoy!!!
