Instructions

Adjust one of your racks to be in the middle of the oven. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
In a large mixing bowl, add the dry ingredients and combine well.
In a small bowl, whisk the egg whites and oil. Add the rest of the wet ingredients and whisk to combine (some separation is normal).
Pour the wet ingredients in the bowl with the dry ingredients. Mix well so that all the dry ingredients are coated.
Spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray and add the granola; spread out evenly.
Bake for about 35-40 minutes, or until the oats are golden brown and dry. Don’t break up the clumps!
Allow to cool to room temperature undistributed. Then break up the granola and stir in the craisins and chopped apples. Transfer to an airtight container.
Granola will crisp up as it cools.

Notes

To make vegan: use pure maple syrup and sub the egg whites for applesauce or more oil
To store: Store the cooled granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 10 days.
