Peanut Butter Granola instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325 F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside..
  2. In a large bowl, stir together the oats, peanuts, almonds, salt and cinnamon. Set aside..
  3. Place the honey, peanut butter and brown sugar together in a small bowl and heat for about 30 seconds in the microwave. Stir and continue to heat at 10 second intervals until the mixture is completely combined and smoothly melted together. You'll want it to be fairly runny, so add more honey to thin it out if needed..

Then, stir in the raisins and chocolate chips (or additional dried fruit). I used dark chocolate chips. Allow the granola to cool completely..
