We make granola in BIG batches around here and highly recommend that you do too - perfect for quick breakfasts, layered into a parfait for snack or desserts or simply enjoyed with cold milk.
Preheat oven to 300F. In a large bowl, mix all ingredients except the dried fruit and egg white. Toss well to coat evenly. In a small bowl, whisk egg whites till white and frothy. Evenly mix into granola mixture.
Spread evenly on a parchment paper covered cookie sheet. Bake for 35-40 minutes, carefully turning once about half way through. Try to keep the clumps intact as much as possible while turning.
When evenly browned, place granola on a wire rack and cool completely. Break apart into your desired cluster size, mix in dried fruit and enjoy!
