FRUIT SMOOTHIE:
Anything goes really. Any combination of frozen fruits, juice and ice. My personal favorites are berries, peaches and always a frozen banana. And I love it with orange juice, but apple juice is good too.
I have my favorite granola recipe below, or you can just use store-bought. Either way it is a perfectly beautiful treat! Enjoy!
INGREDIENTS FOR THE GRANOLA:
1/2 cup butter
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp almond extract
1 tsp cinnamon
2 cups Rice Krispie cereal
2 cups oats
1 cup shredded coconut
1 cup Craisins
1/2 cup chopped nuts
INSTRUCTIONS:
Heat oven to 325 degrees.
Melt butter in a large pot over low heat. When the butter is melted whisk in sugar, honey, flour, vanilla, almond extract & cinnamon. Remove from heat and add the remaining ingredients, (except the coconut, nuts and craisins). Mix well.
Transfer the mixture onto a baking pan with wax paper on it. Bake for 15 minutes until golden brown. Allow the granola to cool for 1 hour in the pan.
*I add the coconut, nuts and dried fruit the last 5 minutes of baking so they don’t get too brown.
