National Breakfast Month: Cranberry orange granola recipe

This yummy granola recipe has the flavors of fall baked into every bite. Not only does it make a hearty breakfast, it makes a filling snack.
CRANBERRY ORANGE GRANOLA

• 3 cups old fashioned rolled oats
• 1/2 cup sunflower seeds
• 1/2 cup chopped almonds, walnuts or pecans
• 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 cup dried cranberries
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons orange zest
• 5 tablespoons orange juice
• 3 tablespoons maple syrup
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Preheat the oven to 300F. Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl. Combine wet ingredients in another bowl. Mix dry ingredients with wet ingredients until all dry ingredients are fully moist. Spread mixture onto 1-2 cookie sheets and bake for 20-30 minutes, or until golden brown. Stir and continue to bake, checking every 10-15 minutes to ensure the granola doesn't burn. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely. The granola will crisp up as it cools. Store in a container with a tight-fitting lid.
