Truly Healthy Granola
- 2 1/2 cups old fashioned oats
- 2 tablespoons fruit juice concentrate (any flavor will work, I use Welch's 100% Juice White Grape Peach)
- 2 tablespoons sugar-free maple syrup
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1/4 cup pecans, chopped
- 1/4 cup dried fruit (I like Sun-maid brand Fruit Bits)
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a small saucepan, heat the juice, honey and maple syrup over medium heat until you can stir the mixture easily, but before it starts to boil. About 5 minutes.
- Place the oats in a large mixing bowl. Pour the honey mixture over the oats and stir quickly to coat.
- Spread the oats in an even layer on a baking sheet. Bake until the granola is crisp and starts to brown. About 15 minutes. Watch it carefully, or the granola may burn.
- Place the baking sheet on a cooling rack and while the granola is still warm, toss in the pecans and dried fruit. Sprinkle with cinnamon and finish cooling on the baking sheet.
- Store in an airtight container.
