This recipe comes from my dear friend Cindy Strong who will hopefully be joining us on this blog.
I baked this longer than the 45 minutes because it was still so moist. But I discovered that it dries if you just let it sit a bit after baking. It is a yummy recipe. Although I will probably go lighter on the cinnamon next time.
The granola is yummy. I didn't have molasses so I used honey for the substitute. It turned out delicious...maybe a little sweeter than necessary.
Thanks for the recipe
