Cinnamon Raisin Granola Cereal

Here's another variation that turned out really well, it's so easy to play around with this recipe! Serve with yogurt & fruit, or with a bowl of fresh milk! The best part is all of the superfood add-ins. :)
Servings: 6.5 cups

Ingredients

  • 1 cup organic coconut oil, or this refined coconut oil if you prefer no coconut flavor
  • 1 cup real maple syrup
  • 1/2-3/4 cup organic palm sugar, or organic cane sugar is fine too if that's what you have. If you're working on getting your family off the breakfast cereals from the store, you'll want to use 3/4 for now and cut it back later. If your family doesn't have many sweets, you'll be able to get away with only 1/2 cup or less.
  • 2 Tablespoons cinnamon
  • 1.5 teaspoons sea salt
  • 2 heaping Tablespoons of this colostrum, for a nutritional boost to help heal your gut, increase energy, help digestion, weight loss, and tons more (learn here about the many health benefits and how to get more colostrum into your diet.)
  • 1 scoop of this collagen for another superfood hit-- again, this is good for hair, nails, skin, and your immune system!
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 6 cups organic sprouted oats
  • 1.5 cups organic raisins

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350*.
  • In a large saucepan, add coconut oil, syrup, sugar, cinnamon, salt, colostrum, and collagen powder--heat and whisk until it's mixed together well.
  • Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla, oats, and raisins. Spread onto 2-9x13 baking pans or cookie sheets lined with parchment paper for easy clean up. I LOVE these pre-cut parchment paper sheets.
  • Bake for 15 minutes, stir. Bake another 15 minutes, stir. Turn your oven down to 200* and bake 15 more minutes--check to see if it's starting to crisp up. This timing was perfect for my oven, but you may want to bake yours a bit longer--you want it a little crispy but not hard and burnt! Remember it'll crisp up more as it cools.
  • After cooling, break it up a bit and store in a sealed container or baggie in the fridge to keep it fresh longer, but ours doesn't last long.
  • Serve with raw milk or if you don't have that, at the LEAST, always use whole milk and never ever ultra-pasteurized.  (Read more about healthy milk options here.)  You could also serve over yogurt with fruit, or just eat it by the handful.  🙂
