Peanut Butter Granola
When the time came to whip up a batch of granola, I knew that this peanut butter granola sweetened with honey would be a big hit with everyone in the house. Recipe adapted from The New Midwestern Table, by Amy Thielen.
Ingredients
- ½ cup butter
- ½ cup honey
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup creamy peanut butter
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
- 4 cups old fashioned oats
- 1 cup shredded coconut
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325℉. Line two baking sheets with aluminum foil; set aside.
- In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Whisk in the honey, brown sugar, peanut butter, cinnamon, and sea salt until combined.
- In a mixing bowl, stir together the oats and the coconut. Pour the peanut butter and honey mixture over the oats, and working quickly, stir to evenly coat.
- Divide the oats evenly between the two prepared baking sheets and spread it out in a single layer. Season it with a little more fine sea salt to enhance the flavors.
- Bake in preheated oven 20 minutes. Remove the pans from the oven, stir the granola with a spatula, spread it back out, and return it to the oven for 5-10 more minutes, or until fragrant and browned.
- Allow the granola to cool completely before breaking it up and storing in an airtight container for up to two weeks. Enjoy with on its own, with milk as a cereal, or on fruit and yogurt.
