Soak the figs and Cinnamon Pear Balsamic for 15 minutes, until the figs have softened. Strain off the Cinnamon Pear Dark Balsamic and reserve. Preheat the oven to 350℉.

Combine the dry ingredients (oats, sunflower seeds, and quinoa).

In a small saucepan add the Cinnamon Pear Balsamic, cinnamon, and honey and heat until the honey is dissolved into the Cinnamon Pear Balsamic.

Allow the granola to cool and rest to clump and store in a glass container.
