Incorporate one egg white to help bind the ingredients together.

Add agave syrup (or honey) to taste.

Mix in a pinch or two of cinnamon.

Toss the mixture until evenly combined.

Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C).

Spread the mixture evenly on a baking sheet.

Bake for 10 minutes, then remove and toss the granola.

Return to the oven for another 10 minutes and repeat the tossing process about four or five times until golden brown.

Let cool for about 5 minutes, then stir in dried cranberries, chocolate chips, and banana chips.

Store in a sealable container or jar, preferably in the fridge for 2-3 weeks.
