It’s important to eat breakfast before you start your day, but that can be tough when so many breakfast foods — especially cereal — contain wheat. With this recipe, you not only get a healthy substitute for cereal, you can take the leftovers with you for an on-the-go snack!
Ingredients
2 cups wheat-free rolled oats
1/2 cup wheat-free rice cereal
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/3 cup pure maple syrup
1/3 cup oil, such as light olive oil
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup raisins
Tools
large baking sheet
parchment paper
mixing bowl
measuring cups/spoons
spatula
Preheat oven to 325°F. Place a sheet of parchment paper on a large baking sheet and set aside.
Combine the rolled oats, rice cereal, ground cinnamon, salt, brown sugar, maple syrup, oil, vanilla, and raisins in a mixing bowl. Stir until the ingredients are coated well.
Spread the granola mixture on the baking sheet so it is mostly flat.
Bake in the oven for 20 minutes or until slightly golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool before serving.
Eat with your favorite yogurt, or splash some milk on top for a crunchy breakfast treat!
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to two weeks.
