Granola is a delicious and nourishing way to add in extra protein, healthy fats and fiber into your day!
Itās easy to make, and trust me the house smells SO good when granola is baking in the oven. As most foods, I prefer to make it myself as that way I am in charge of how much extra sweet and salt gets added. I have a couple great recipes in my cookbook, but I thought it would share a new one here for you as it brings in ALL the fall feels (yes just because Thanksgiving is over Iām not ready to move on, lol). šš¤
Now the other question- are you a āmylkā or yogurt person with your granola?
