Baby Granola


Well this granola was definitely an experiment, but the result was excellent. It is a soft cereal which is very suitable for Eyla, as something too crunchy would be a bit much for her at this age, and she loved it!

1 cup quinoa flakes

1 cup baby rice cereal (I used Healthy Times Brand)

2 cups brown rice puffs

1/2 cup ground flax seeds

1 cup sesame seeds

1 cup pumpkin seeds

1 cup sunflower seeds

1 1/2 cup watered down applesauce (1/2 cup water to 1 cup apple sauce)

1/2 cup canola oil

1 tbsp cinnamon

dash of salt

1 cup of cut up organic unsulfered apricots

Preheat oven to 350F

Combine dry ingredients (except the apricots) in large bowl, whisk wet ingredients in another and combine. Place on a cookie sheet and bake until golden approximately 30 minutes, turning every 10 minutes. When it is done, while still warm, place in a large bowl and add apricots and stir. Place back on cookie sheet and allow to cool before storing in an air tight container.

Enjoy
