Cranberry-Pistachio Granola
I like to make this granola in the winter months—I use cranberries a lot in my winter recipes. It’s great around the holidays, too, because the dried cranberries, pistachios, and pepitas give this Cranberry-Pistachio Granola a touch of red and green. But you can enjoy it all winter long!

Peanut-Cranberry Granola
Usually when I make granola, I use chopped walnuts or pecans as part of the ingredients. But I tasted a granola that had peanuts in it, and thought I’d try to make my own! This Peanut Granola also has some maple syrup and dried cranberries in it, making it a great granola to snack on…

Cranberry-Raisin Toasted Oat Cereal
Here’s a great way to make your own healthy toasted oat cereal! I really like the taste of toasted oats—they have a richer, slightly nuttier flavor when they’re toasted in the oven. This cereal is not sweet like granola and it’s not as crunchy as granola either, since it doesn’t have a honey or maple…

Cranberry-Broccoli Salad
Hear’s a recipe that I like to make over the holidays, but it’s actually great any time of the year! It’s called Cranberry-Broccoli Salad. The dried cranberries and the honey-sweetened dressing add a light sweetness to this side dish. And the sharp Cheddar cheese and bacon bits add some savory flavor. Mix those things in with…

Cranberry-Pecan Granola
I’m a big fan of homemade granola, and whenever I make it, I often share a bag of it with my friend Brady, who is just as much a homemade granola fan as I am! Since Brady is away at school now, I sent him some in a “Care Package” my friend Ann and I…

Gingerbread Granola
It was time for me to make granola again and I love trying out different flavors! So this time it’s Gingerbread Granola. I thought adding some dried cranberries into the mix, a little touch of red, would make it a wonderful granola for the holidays. Have it for breakfast, brunch, or a healthy sweet snack. It also makes a…

Cranberry-Pecan Banana Bread
It’s been awhile since I made banana bread, so when I had some very ripe bananas, I decided it was time to make banana bread again! I also had some dried cranberries I was wanting to use and chopped pecans sounded like a great addition to those cranberries. So I came up with this Cranberry-Pecan Banana Bread.
