Jump to Recipe

Also known as Cherry-Berry-Very-Merry-Christmas Granola, Cupid’s Crunch, or some other festive name depending on the gift-giving occasion, you will find this granola in our pantry pretty much any time.

Ingredients
  • 4 cups GF rolled oats
  • 2 cups sweetened, shredded coconut
  • 2 cups sliced almonds
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon (total) spices of your choice: try ginger, nutmeg, allspice, cloves, or even a pie spice blend
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup flavorless oil
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1 -1 1/2 cups (total) dried cherries and cranberries or any combination of dried fruits including cherries, cranberries, raisins, dried apricots, chopped if desired.
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350
Step 2
Line a half sheet pan with parchment paper (optional, but makes for easier clean up)
Step 3
Toss the oats, coconut, almonds, cinnamon, spices & salt in a large bowl.
Step 4
Pour the vegetable oil and honey over the oat mixture.
Step 5
Stir until all the oats and nuts are coated with the liquids. Pour onto a sheet pan and spread evenly.
Step 6
Bake, stirring occasionally with a spatula, until the mixture turns a nice, even golden brown, about 25 to 30 minutes.
Step 7
Remove the granola from the oven, add the dried fruit and allow to cool, stirring occasionally. Store the cooled granola in an airtight container.
