Xagave Granola



Ingredients:
12 packets plain instant oatmeal (4 cups)
1/2 cup sliced almonds (and/or 1/2 cup coconut flakes)
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup coconut oil
1/4 cup xagave
1 teaspoon vanilla

Directions: Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. In a large bowl mix the oats, almonds (and/or coconut), brown sugar, salt and cinnamon. In a small saucepan warm the oil and xagave. Whisk in vanilla. Pour the liquid over the oat mixture. Stir gently. You may need to finish mixing by hand. Spread granola evenly into two 9x13 Pyrex pans. Bake for 40-45 minutes, stirring occasionally (about every 10 minutes). Remove from oven and cool completely. Once cooled you can add in raisins, dried cranberries, or chocolate chips.

Eat it plain, serve with milk, or over greek yogurt...yummy!
