Made this with tangerine marmalade, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and oats. Baked 25 minutes. Great snack and flavour, will make again and again for snacks, or on yogurt. -
This is great granola! I used sugar free apricot preserves, Splenda & more cinnamon. Sorry I'm not a nut fan so I used raisins for the almonds & just skipped the seeds-also used less coconut. It browned nicely in the oven & while I didn't taste the preserves totally, there was a sweetness to the granola that made it taste very yummy! Thank u for sharing! -
So radical that I feel like a rebel!!!! I made this this morning as I had the kitchen to myself, and I have just scoffed a handful now - DIVINE! Based on Sharon's ideas, I made mine with home-made apple and apricot jelly, and also added a few hazelnuts too, they go so well with apples! I popped in a few sultanas, as I like a fruit and nut mixture - but other than that - I did exactly as stated in the recipe. I shall be attacking this snack this afternoon no doubt - absolutley delicious and well worth getting up early for! Made for PAC Autumn 2007 - Well Done Dinglebop! FT:-) -
Yummy and easy to make too! I made exactly as instructed and it turned out great! I look forward to using different jellies for different taste sensations! Maybe orange marmalade, strawberry jam, or pineapple apricot jelly! Thanks for a cool radical recipe!

I love to cook with my Grandma! Grandma is a wonderful cook, and makes me lots of yummy goodies. Grandma also makes sure that I eat good healthy food so my brother and I will grow up big and strong. Recipezaar has been a fun site where Grandma and I look for new easy to make recipes for us to test. I like the testing part best of all! I have learned that I don't like wasabi, it was hot and I had to spit it out.
