Clearly I'm getting caught up on recipes from the past couple months, and we've tried quite a few new granolas. This version from Always Order Dessert earned rave reviews. It makes breakfast taste like dessert while still carrying some resemblance of nutritional value. (You can always decrease the add ins to lower the sugar content while still retaining the s'mores flavor profile.)
S'mores Granola
2 1/2 cups oats
1/2 cup wheat germ
1 tsp. salt
1/2 stick butter
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup brown rice syrup (or maple syrup or honey)
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup mini marshmallows
Preheat oven to 350°. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine oats, wheat germ and salt. In a medium saucepan, combine butter, sugar and syrup together over medium heat until the butter melts and sugar dissolves. Stir vigorously to combine the mixture into a thick syrup.
Pour the syrup mixture over the oats, and stir well to coat. Spread evenly on baking sheet, and bake 10 to 15 minutes until oats are golden brown, stirring at least once. Sprinkle on chocolate chips as soon as you remove it from the oven, and let it cool completely (and it should harden as it cools). Add in mini marshmallows. Makes about 4 cups of granola.
