Store-bought granola is often loaded with hidden sugar, which makes the homemade version all the more worth your time. Rolled oats are lightly coated in maple syrup and toasted to perfection alongside your favorite nuts, seeds, and cranberries. Paired with yogurt or milk, this is one endlessly customizable recipe you won’t hit snooze on.
All of Anyday’s recipes are tested (and retested!) in many different microwave and home kitchens to make sure they work— and work well. Unless specified otherwise, all recipes should be cooked at full power.

Different microwaves have different settings. See your microwave manual (or look it up online) to learn how to change your microwave’s power level.
For many microwaves: enter the cook time, press the “Power” (or “Power Level”) button, and select a number between 1-10. Other microwaves may require selecting the Power Level first, and then entering the cook time.
Microwaves list power levels in different ways. Here’s a guide to help you adjust:
PL 10 = 100% = High (default)
PL 9 = 90% = High
PL 8 = 80% = Med-High
PL 7 = 70% = Med-High
PL 6 = 60% = Medium
PL 5 = 50% = Medium
PL 4 = 40% = Med-Low
PL 3 = 30% = Med-Low
PL 2 = 20% = Low
PL 1 = 10% = Low
You will know if the power level has been successfully changed if you hear periodic changes in the microwave’s tone after it begins cooking.

- Toss in the cranberries. Transfer the mixture to a plate in an even layer. Allow the granola to fully cool to room temperature, which will crisp it up.
Suggestions
- Enjoy over yogurt, with milk, or sprinkle over fresh fruit.
- Add chocolate chips once the granola cools for a trail mix treat.
Recipe Notes
- Save in an air-tight container for up to 1 month.
- Microwave ovens vary, even with the same wattages. Adjust cooking times as needed.
