Homemade Granola So Easy You Won’t Believe It!
Made With Love
Ever wondered what it takes to make your own homemade granola? Well it‘s not hard at all really, even I can do it! 🙂
My Granola Obsession
In all my life I absolutely hated granola and didn’t like it in my yogurt, oatmeal, or smoothie bowls. I never really ate granola and didn’t understand why everyone raved about it so much.
Just recently one day I decided to get some granola with my yogurt. I instantly and randomly became obsessed!
I was eating yogurt and granola 24/7, but I noticed I would get painful stomach aches afterwards. I soon realized that the aches were coming from the granola I was eating!
I cut the granola cold turkey, until one day I decided to try and make my own homemade granola. I looked up a few recipes and combined my favorite aspects and created this recipe! The best part is that I haven‘t had any stomach issues since!
What Type of Oats?
I recommend using Rolled Oats over Quick Oats because it is less processed. Rolled Oats will also hold its structure better and not disintegrate.
Save The Money And Cook At Home
I know it is very easy to buy ready made granola at the store, but it’s also much healthier to make some homemade granola instead. It is very simple, quick, and actually cheaper. I hope you enjoy this granola recipe as much as I do!
