Honey Fruit, Nut and Seeds Granola

April 18, 2018 By Elizabeth@ Pine Cones and Acorns 2 Comments

spoon is old but here is on that is Similar, Similar napkins, jars

Good morning! How was your weekend? For many, including my family and a lot of friends in the Midwest it was another cold, wet, snowy weekend. My friend Anita of Castles, Crowns and Cottages said she got 2 FEET of snow. I hate to even write this but it was 85 here on Saturday and I got a sunburn while planting my containers. Sunday it was hot, humid and rainy but no snow. 

Since it was raining on Sunday I decided to use up some of the plethora of nuts, seeds and dried fruit that we have and make some granola. I make it to eat dry like a trail mix and as easy way to get my flax and chia seeds as well as healthy oats, nuts and fruit. But you can also sprinkle it on yogurt or eat it for breakfast with fresh fruit and milk. 

Honey Fruit, Nuts and Seeds Granola

3 cups old fashioned oats

1/2 cup raw almonds

1/2 cup raw walnuts

1/3 cup ground flax seed

4 tablespoons chiaseeds

1 tablespoon cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup of dried fruit(I used cranberries and raisins)

1/2 cup of honey

3 tablespoon melted coconut oil

1 Tablespoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup of coconut

Combine the oats, almonds, walnuts, flax seeds, chia seeds, cinnamon and salt in a mixing bowl. Stir in the dried fruit. Then stir in the coconut oil, honey, and the extract, mix well to coat. Spread the mixture evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.  Bake at 300 for 15 minutes, then stir the mixture and rotate the pan, cook an additional 15 minutes, then sprinkle the coconut over the top and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Remove baking panfrom oven and let cool. Enjoy. 

I hope that you have a great day!

    I like granola, though I don't have it often.

This is how I feel tonight, as if I am seeing life This is how I feel tonight, as if I am seeing life through the blur of tears and sorrow. Sunday night my friend of 34 years lost her husband of 36 years, because of Covid he did not get to meet or hold his newborn grandson. Then just an hour ago we received a call that my husbands best friend died of a massive heart attack this morning. Sometimes life just knocks you to your knees and all you can do is pray for the  loved ones you’ve lost, cherish their memories and let your time with them sustain you until you meet again. Then you ask God for the strength to get up and move forward. #life #loss #givemestrength #givemestrengthlord #pray
Although I see signs of spring, a daffodil popping Although I see signs of spring, a daffodil popping up from the ground, bright and colorful flowers in the garden center the weather and the calendar tell me otherwise. So I am hunkering down and taking solace inside enjoying the details of a collected home and life. This tapestry is a piece that we purchased over 25 years ago in Paris, it hang in the dining room and makes me smile every time I see it because it reminds me of such a happy and beautiful place. What do you collect? What brings you joy in your home? #collectedhome #collectedlook #homedecor #myhome #homesweethome #interiordesign #frenchprovincial #france #frenchdecor #tapestry #instahome #instahomedecor #acolectedlife #collection
Good afternoon friends, it’s a frigid day here. Good afternoon friends, it’s a frigid day here. How is it in your “neck of the woods?” We took a long road-trip a few weeks ago to the beautiful @colonialwmsburg . I love this place, there is so much to see and do and even wearing masks and social distancing you can still enjoy the history and the beauty of this living museum. Today I am home doing the weekend chores, and of course doing a little baking. I hope that you have a fabulous weekend. #colonialwilliamsburg #williamsburg #colonialhouse #livinghistory #livinghistorymuseum #museum #winterfun #roadtrip #wanderlust #weekend #weekendvibes #weekendmood

“If winter comes, can spring be far behind?” ~ “If winter comes, can spring be far behind?” ~Percy Bysshe Shelly  my answer to that is I hope not! This has been a strange winter and I am sure that for the 4 million people without power in19 states they are hoping spring is sooner rather than later. I hope that you are all well and keeping safe. I’m praying for all of you without power and heat and hope it is restored soon. #pinkaesthetic #art #acrylicpainting #painting #details #artistsoninstagram #artwork #artworld #color #artoftheday #quote #quoteoftheday #quotestoliveby #artofinstagram
