Usually when I make granola, I use chopped walnuts or pecans as part of the ingredients. But I tasted a granola that had peanuts in it, and thought I’d try to make my own! This Peanut Granola also has some maple syrup and dried cranberries in it, making it a great granola to snack on for autumn!

You’ll end up with about 7 cups of this crunchy, tasty granola. Now there is some vanilla extract in this granola too, and in case you’re wondering if it really does have two whole Tablespoon of vanilla, that is correct—it really does! The vanilla just adds to the flavor very nicely! Have this granola for breakfast with milk or sprinkled over yogurt, or just eat it by itself as a snack!
