From cookie batter splattered all over the kitchen ceiling to sugar and cinnamon swapped in a cake. But along with the memories and the confidence we’re building, these recipes actually nurture our families too!
My nine-year-old daughter, Miri, keeps our freezer stocked with homemade granola. Yummy to eat plain or add to yogurt. Here are the two versions we like.
Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
For cinnamon granola: Combine maple syrup, coconut oil, and cinnamon in a small pot. Melt over low heat, stirring.
Measure out the oats, almonds, and sunflower seeds into a ziplock bag. Pour the melted liquid into the bag and shake to coat the oats.
Pour the oats onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Spread with the back of a spoon or an offset spatula. Bake for 20 minutes. Allow to cool, then break into small pieces. Store in the freezer for freshness.
