Homemade Christmas Granola -the perfect gift for Christmas: make cranberry and mixed fruits and nuts granola , or chocolate chip and coconut granola for the holidays.

Christmas is a time for entertaining, and I always love a brunch. The last few times I’ve made granola, my friends and family have loved it. I usually make a plain oatmeal granola with just some nuts in it, but for Christmas I thought it would be fun to make some with the flavours of the holidays added in. This Christmas Granola is so good!
My youngest daughter loves all things chocolate, and I thought that nothing says Christmas like cranberries. So I made a couple of versions.
Chocolate and Coconut Granola
For the chocolate one, after the granola was cooled I added some chocolate chips and coconut flakes. It was a hit…big hit.
Cranberry Granola
For the cranberry version, I added dried cranberries, along with some other dried fruit -chopped dried figs, and raisins, and more flaked coconut.
Depending what your family loves, you could add in any dried fruit, or nuts…or chocolate.

Perfect For Brunch
I served the granola with new Nordic Smooth Cottage Cheese, Vanilla flavoured. The Christmas Granola is also great with yogurt or cold milk, and fresh fruit.
Along with our Christmas granola, I made up a batch of my husbands famous pancakes – find the recipe here.
I love this kind of easy entertaining, perfect for a no-fuss holiday get-together.
Christmas Granola Gift
Another great idea would be to make up a batch or two of this granola for gift giving. It’s the kind of gift anyone would love.
With homemade Christmas granola for giving or enjoying yourself, life really is a party!
