Our Mother’s Day Brunch is tomorrow and we are prepping for the festivity. This year we are having a yogurt bar. I cannot think of a better topping for the yogurt other than homemade granola (and fresh berries)!
Since I made this granola in the actifry, I was able to cut way down on the fat. Most granolas have high amounts of unwanted fat, but the actifry allows you to cook with minimal oil and have the same result in texture with the cooking process.
Next time you go to the store take a peek at the label before you purchase “healthy granola”.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup steel cut oats
1/2 cup old fashioned oats
1 cup puffed wheat cereal
1/6 cup dried cranberries
1/6 cup raisins
1 tsp pure vanilla
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 TB canola oil
1/3 cup pure maple syrup
2 TB grounded Flaxseed
Directions:
Place all the ingredients in the Actifry and set the timer for 10 minutes. Allow the granola to cool prior to eating. Enjoy the granola on its own or on top of yogurt!

Where does the maple come into play?
In the beginning ! Sorry about that
We cooked this, but the oats didn’t cook, it didn’t cluster them together and the ActiFry spat oats and other ingredients all over the kitchen top and into the main part of the ActiFry, Bit of a disaster really, did we do anything wrong? How was it for you?
oh no! I would try less liquid next time.
