2 cups dried, sulfite-free apricots, unsweetened cut into 1/4 inch cubes
Directions...

2. In a large mixing bowl add oats and spices - mix.
3. Next add in maple syrup and coconut oil and toss well.
4. Spread granola out on baking sheets. Bake until golden brown about 20-25 minutes.
5. Remove from oven and let cool.
6. Once cool add granola mixture, apricots, and coconut flakes together - mix.

8. To serve place 2/3 cup granola in a bowl with 3/4 cup Greek yogurt, and top with 1 cup fresh fruit.
