Crockpot Granola


After trying out many recipes, here is our favorite granola recipe. I make it every two weeks and we eat it twice a week (although we'd love to eat it more often!).

Original recipe: www.homewithpurpose.blogspot.com

5 cups oats
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup unsweetened coconut
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup honey
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cup raisins
3/4 cup dried cranberries

1. Combine all ingredients except for raisins and cranberries in a crock-pot. Cook on LOW for 5 hours, stirring occasionally. When granola has browned to your taste, turn off crock-pot and let cool. Stir in raisins and cranberries. Store in an air-tight container.
