Granola Two Ways

I like to snack a lot. And by a lot, I mean a crazy amount. I’ve got jars with random assortments of nuts and dried fruit lining an entire shelf of my pantry. A few years ago, in an effort to be more organized and free up space, I started making granola. Here are two of my favorite recipes: one sweet and one savory.

The sweet granola, spiced with fennel and ginger, is rich in dried fruit and nuts, while the savory version is flavored with sun-dried tomatoes, powdered tomatoes, and smoked paprika. You can find bags of sun-dried tomatoes and jars of tomato powder at many international markets. You can also make your own tomato powder by grinding dehydrated or sun-dried tomatoes with a spice mill or blender.
