Strawberry Granola Crunch (Clean Eating)

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 325u00b0F Line a baking sheet with parchment or silpat.

2. 2

   Place the nuts into a small food processor and pulse to crumble (if you don't have a food processor, you can use a Ziploc bag and a rolling pin). Don't overdo it, you don't want them finely ground, just lightly chopped/crushed.

3. 3

   In a medium sized bowl combine the chopped nuts, oats, and cinnamon. Stir to combine and set aside.

4. 4

   Place the fresh strawberries, honey, and vanilla in a small food processor (or blender) and blend until pureed. Pour into oat/nut mixture. Toss/stir to combine.

5. 5

   Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silpat. Spread the granola in a single layer on top. Bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring every 5-7 minutes. Don't be concerned if the granola seems mushy. Remove from the oven and let it sit and cool for one hour.

6. 6

   After the granola has cooled and become crunchy, fold in dried cranberries and store in a Ziploc bag. Enjoy as a cereal, snack, or over ice cream.
