Ingredients
- 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 0.5 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 0.25 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup almond slices
- 0.25 cup sunflower seeds
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond slices, and sunflower seeds.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the applesauce, honey, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
Step 4
Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients and stir until the oats are fully coated.
Step 5
Spread the mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, gently stirring every 10 minutes to ensure even cooking, until the granola is golden brown.
Step 7
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the granola to cool completely. It will become crunchier as it cools.
Step 8
Once cooled, stir in the fresh blueberries. Store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
