I love granola… but I hate store bought prices! Every time I buy granola it’s usually too sugary, too oat-y, too nutty, or too bland… until I made this recipe! It has the oat and nutty flavors with a sweet hint of honey & vanilla.

You can eat this for breakfast with almond milk, eat for a midday snack, or bring as a side for lunch!
