Cardamom-Almond Granola: Use naturally sweetened vanilla protein powder. In place of the vanilla extract, add 1 teaspoon ground cardamom and 1 teaspoon pure almond extract . Add 2/3 cup sliced almonds to the oat mixture.
Cranberry-Orange Granola: Use naturally sweetened vanilla protein powder. In place of the vanilla extract, add 1 tablespoon finely grated orange zest and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Add 1/2 cup dried cranberries to the cooled granola.
Preheat oven to 325 F (163 C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place oats (and any optional mix-ins, and spices EXCEPT FRUIT) in a large bowl.
Place the protein powder, apple juice, syrup, coconut oil and salt in a medium saucepan. Turn heat to medium and whisk until mixture is smooth, thick and creamy (and just beginning to bubble). Whisk in vanilla.
Pour mixture over oats, stirring to combine and coat. Spread evenly on prepared baking sheet.
Bake in preheated oven for 42 to 45 minutes, stirring once or twice, or until granola is dry. Remove from oven and let cool completely on sheet. Stir in any dried fruit, if using.
Store cooled granola in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks, or freeze for up to 2 months.
