Homemade Granola as You Like It
I was in the supermarket ready to grab one of those bags of "designer" granolas and paused when realizing it was $12 for quite a small bag. Yes it was all natural and made with the best ingredients but why couldn't I do the same with even better ingredients at home. So I placed the granola back on the shelf and bought a large bag of oats, some nuts, coconut oil and a large jug of maple syrup, all the ingredients needed to make your own top quality granola. This recipe is a small batch. Though you can keep granola in an airtight container for up to a month, I like mine super fresh. Once you have the basic idea of granola, feel free to begin to change up with different flavors and textures, add dried coconut, change the almonds to hazelnuts or pistachios, or chop up dried apricots or apples- variety is truly the spice of life.
Homemade granola in these little jars make great gifts for friends and family.
Spread out granola onto a baking sheet and then pop in the oven- so easy!
Toasted and ready to be quickly eaten with some yoghurt, milk or just right out of the jar!
