Cherry And Coconut Granola With Yogurt Recipes

COCONUT SOUR-CHERRY GRANOLA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper. Toss the oats, coconut, pistachios, pepitas and salt in a large bowl. Warm the brown sugar, maple syrup and olive oil in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring, until the sugar dissolves. Fold the sugar mixture into the oat mixture to evenly coat.
• Spread the granola on the prepared baking sheets and bake, stirring often, until dry and lightly golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and toss with the dried sour cherries. Let cool to room temperature. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 1 month.

CHERRY, ALMOND AND CINNAMON GRANOLA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Toss the oats, coconut, almonds, and cherries together in a large bowl. Pour the vegetable oil and honey over the oat mixture. Add the cinnamon, and stir with a wooden spoon until all the oats and nuts are coated with the liquids. Pour onto a sheet pan. Bake, stirring occasionally with a spatula, until the mixture turns a nice, even golden brown, about 25 to 30 minutes.
• Remove the granola from the oven and allow to cool, stirring occasionally. Store the cooled granola in an airtight container.

CHERRY-ALMOND GRANOLA WITH YOGURT

Steps:

• For the granola: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a pot set over medium heat, combine the oil, brown sugar and agave and cook until bubbling, about 4 minutes. Add the agave mixture to the oats, almonds and salt in a heatproof bowl and stir to coat. Transfer this mixture to a parchment-lined baking sheet and spread into as thin of a layer as you can. Bake, stirring often to ensure even browning, until browned, about 20 minutes (see Cook's Note).
• Transfer to a mixing bowl and quickly mix in the cherries and lime zest. Allow to cool.
• For the yogurt: Split and scrape the vanilla beans into the Greek yogurt. Add the confectioners' sugar and salt, if using, and stir. Store the vanilla bean pods in the yogurt until you are ready to serve.
• Spoon the yogurt into serving dishes and top with the granola. Serve immediately.
