Ingredients
Nonstick cooking spray
2 cups old-fashioned oats
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1 cup sliced almonds
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
1/4 cup lightly packed brown sugar
1/4 cup honey, plus more for serving
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Mixed berries, for serving
1 (2-pound) container nonfat plain yogurt
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Line a 9-inch square baking sheet with foil, allowing the foil to extend over the sides. Spray with nonstick cooking spray.
- Mix the oats, cranberries, almonds, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl.
- Combine the butter, sugar and honey in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring until the butter melts and the mixture begins to boil. Add the vanilla and stir. Remove from the heat.
- Pour the butter over the oats, mixing until well coated. Transfer to the prepared pan and, using a spatula, press the oats evenly into the pan.
- Bake until the top is crisp and golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a rack and cool. Using the foil as aid, lift out of the pan and place on a work surface. Crumble into pieces. Serve with berries, plain yogurt and drizzle with additional honey.
