I finally cracked the code for the perfect granola, it’s slightly sweet, nutty, and crispy but still tender. The oats almost melt in your mouth and have a touch of maple. This maple almond granola is the perfect topping on your favorite yogurt for added texture and crunch.

We use simple pantry ingredients and the recipe is completely customizable. You can substitute any nut or adjust the sweetness level to your liking.
