A few weeks ago we hosted an epic retreat in Jamaica at The Runaway BnB. We were so inspired by all of the native flavors of the island, we figured we had to create a series of recipes using fresh, local produce.

Ingredients
- 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats

Instructions

In a large bowl, combine the first 10 ingredients and mix thoroughly.

In a small bowl, whisk the egg white until frothy, then stir into the granola mixture.
