Although this crunchy cereal isn't a low-calorie version of granola, the heart-healthy monounsaturated fats found in peanut butter and almonds make it a better choice than cereals and cereal bars that contain trans-fatty acids. Dried blueberries and cranberries are loaded with antioxidants, but you can use any dried fruit you have on hand.
Ingredients
Preparation
In large saucepan, heat together apple juice, peanut butter, honey, cinnamon, vanilla and salt over medium heat until peanut butter is melted; remove from heat. Stir in oats and almonds.
Spread on large rimmed baking sheet. Bake in centre of 350°F (180°C) oven, stirring occasionally, until light golden, about 15 minutes.
Stir in cranberries, blueberries and apricots; bake until fragrant and golden, about 15 minutes. Let cool. (Make-ahead: Store in airtight container for up to 2 weeks.)
