Gonna start making granola...

[Mister Obvious]

So I've got the oats and walnuts in a dry skillet, and I've applied a very light salting and an ever so slight SMATTERING of butter over the top.

I've got all the other ingredients chopped up in a little bit of water with the leftover melted butter I used on the oats... craisins, raisins, chopped apricots and apples.

I shall be "toasting" the oats/walnuts, then I will set them aside.

I will then begin boiling the apples etc. and will first add in the cinnamon, then the maple syrup, and more water as needed.

Finally, I will add in the oats/walnuts.

I will let you all know how it turned out.

I have coined it "Fancy Oatmeal" and it shall be by far the fanciest oatmeal I've ever made.
