A healthy breakfast like this granola over some Greek yogurt is an ideal way of getting the protein, calcium, vitamins and minerals you need.

Plus, it makes a large enough batch that you’re bound to have leftovers. Perfect for the following week. Or, use them as the topping in an Apple Crisp, which is great for breakfast or as a dessert!

 

Here are the Ingredients for Homemade Brown Sugar Nut Granola

• old fashioned oats
• almonds
• cashews
• raisins
• brown sugar
• cinnamon
• unsalted butter
• pure vanilla extract
• salt

 

Preheat oven to 150 degrees C. Fry almonds and cashews in a little butter and set them aside. The nuts will be added to the granola mixture later.

 

 

In a small pan on a medium heat, melt the butter and stir in the brown sugar. You could use the microwave instead on your stove for this step.

Remove from the heat and add vanilla extract.

 

In a large bowl, combine the oats, fried almonds, cashews and cinnamon. Then, pour the butter mixture over the oats and nuts mixture and stir until combined.

 

Pour everything into a baking tray. Bake for 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes to achieve an even color.
