I had some oatmeal on hand and also some leftover grated fresh coconut, so I thought I'd try my hand at making granola. You can make granola with any dried fruits, nuts, or seeds you have, but this is what was available to me.
A few cups of oatmeal
A couple cups of grated coconut
A couple cups of walnuts
Some finely diced dried nectarines
Apricot jam as a sweetener
Oil
Sugar
Cinnamon
I put the oatmeal, coconut, walnuts, and nectarines in a big bowl. I added just a little oil to moisten everything, some cinnamon, a couple tablespoons full of sugar, and about 1/2 jar of apricot jam. I mixed everything together and spread it out on a baking sheet, in an even layer. I baked the granola in a 350F oven until it was lightly browned, about 25 minutes. Surprisingly, this turned out to be delicious. Store any leftovers in a sealed container.
