Our Holiday always starts with Granola, homemade of course! We mix a little bit of everything into it. We tried it the first time last christmas, it was the perfect christmas gift to everyone in our family. Now they ask us for more Granola every time we see them.
Well family, here is the recipe so now you can do it yourself …
Christmas Granola
Dry ingredients:
2 cups rolled oats
2 cups rolled rye or buckwheat
1/2 cup almonds, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup hazelnuts, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup flaked coconut, unsweetened
1/4 cup raw unshelled sunflower seeds
1/4 cup flaxseeds
4 tbsp liquid honey, agave, maple or apple syrup
4 tbsp water (or coconut oil, but make sure to melt it first)
1 tsp grounded cinnamon
1 tsp grounded vanilla
Soft ingredients, add after baking:
1 or 2 cups of dried fruit, coarsely chopped (apricots, cranberries, green & yellow raisins, apples, goji, mulberries, figs)
Preheat the oven to 350°F/175°C.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl combine all dry ingredients and place on the baking sheet. Drizzle with honey, water and spices and place in the oven for 15-25 minutes, stir around a couple of times to keep it from getting burnt.
Let the dry ingredients cool of before adding the dried fruit. Add some extra cinnamon if needed. Store the muesli in a large glass jar.

Extremely quick and easy dessert.
Choose your favourite fruits, use what you already have or try these delicious ones.

I love muesli and granola for breakfast, and I’m always looking for new recipes. This one looks like a winner — must try it soon. Great blog.

wow! this looks like a recipe to try for my first taste of muesli!
Where can you find rolled rye? I’ve never heard of it or seen it in our bio-store
Can you tell me how long this will keep in a glass jar. I would like a museli recipe I can make in bulk and store for two to three weeks or longer.
Hi Julie!
You can store this granola at least a month, so no problem!

This was so good! I’m trying to watch my portion control. I added some 70 percent cocoa (chopped fine) and coconut oil really crisps it up. I didn’t have all the ingredients so I combined both of your recipes. It was fun to get creative!

This looks so perfect for the season! By the way, love to follow along your posts on your Facebook page as well!
Åh, den här ser helt underbar ut! Brukar också ge bort egenblandad musli eller granola varje jul. Ätbara klappar är dom bästa klapparna!
