So, since I started making my own granola bars, I haven’t turned back.

I hardly ever buy the store bought granola or granola bars, with the exception of Nature’s Path Honey Almond (I love that brand).

I love granola just by itself for breakfast or topping a smoothie or yogurt bowl off with it. 

However, I find I’m buying the store bought granola less and less and making it at home more and more. I really like the taste of my homemade version better and PLUS it is SUPER easy to make!

My homemade granola is something that my kids love to eat. When I made them mini smoothie bowls I topped them off with the homemade granola (my daughter just ate her granola separate though).

You can add whatever you want to it and make as much as you want.

Hope you enjoy!
