Chinese Five-Spice Granola with Mango Recipe
Chinese Five-Spice Granola with Mango By Eliot, on May 17th, 2017 Since January, we’ve been eating healthier and that includes a healthy breakfast.
(Sorry, that last part sounded like a commercial.)
We have been powering through some granola as we make sure that we eat breakfast every morning to jump start our metabolism. I have a base granola recipe that I tweak quite often, throwing in whatever catches my fancy or whatever is in the kitchen. Here’s the latest version.
Chinese Five-Spice Granola
By Debra
Ingredients
1 c. grape seed oil
1/2 c. honey
1/2 c. maple syrup
1/8 t. fine sea salt
1 t. Chinese Five-Spice
18 oz. quick oats
3/4 c. chia seeds
1/2 c. chopped walnuts
6 oz. dried mango, chopped
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 F.
In a small sauce pan over low heat, stir together the oil, honey and maple syrup. Heat until combined. Do not boil.
Remove from heat and add sea salt and Chinese Five-Spice. Stir.
Place oats, chia seeds and walnuts in a large bowl and toss to combine.
Drizzle the liquid over the oat mixture and stir to combine.
Line two jelly roll pans with a silicon pad or parchment paper. Spread out granola in a thin layer on each pan.
Bake at 350 F. for 30 minutes, rotating pans and stirring half way through.
Remove from oven and let cool completely.
After cooled, add the dried mango. Keep in a sealed container.
Dried apricots or apples would be good in this as well.

Please don’t judge if you check out some of these older recipes. I pulled a few from the early days of EE. I’m a bit embarrassed by the style and photographs (when there were any).
