Ever since I started making my own granola I haven’t been able to eat store bought granola anymore (with the exception of Nature’s Path Organic Oats & Honey Granola…that is just simply delicious).
My kids LOVE my homemade granola, especially my youngest son. The last time I made it he stated that I should add almonds.
So I did!
Now I guess you can say my simple 3 ingredient granola recipe got a slight upgrade.
And while I was at it I added some cinnamon because who can resist anything with cinnamon in it?
And I have recently replaced my all time favorite snack of apples & peanut butter with granola, Greek yogurt, and sliced fruit. And this new granola recipe tastes so good with this combination! I think I am truly addicted to this new snack combo!
Enjoy!
