Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Rolled oats
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 0.25 cup Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Almond slices
- 2 cups Low-fat yogurt
- 1 cup Fresh strawberries
- 1 cup Fresh blueberries
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, ground cinnamon, and salt.
In a small saucepan over low heat, stir together the unsweetened applesauce, honey, and vanilla extract until well blended.
Pour the warm applesauce mixture over the oats and mix until the oats are thoroughly coated.
Spread the mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, stirring halfway through the baking time, until the granola is golden brown and crisp.
Remove from the oven and let cool completely on the baking sheet. The granola will become crispier as it cools.
Once cooled, stir in the almond slices.
For serving, divide the yogurt equally into four bowls.
Sprinkle each bowl with a generous portion of granola.
Top with fresh strawberries and blueberries.
Enjoy immediately for a refreshing and wholesome breakfast or snack!
