This granola recipe is easy to make and so tasty! What’s great about it is that you can customize the ingredients to your liking; add any seeds or nuts that you prefer. We love cinnamon so I added a good amount of ground cinnamon to ours. I also added some walnuts, almond, and hazelnuts for some extra nutrients, flavor and crunch. All 3 of these nuts help provide their own nutritional benefits making this granola a healthy recipe to snack on.

This granola is great to add to yogurt and enjoy it with some fruit or in parfait form.

Served here with whole milk greek yogurt, homemade granola, dried cherries and dried cranberries (my daughter picked out her toppings).

I placed the nuts in a food processor and pulsed them until they were broken down. Pretty much I got them to the size I felt comfortable serving to my toddler. Nuts contain great nutrients so I want to make sure he can still benefit from them but in a safe way.
