My Favorite Granola
Granola is soo easy to make at home and believe it or not it’s very customizable! Using this base recipe you can add in your favorite nuts, fruits, and seeds! You can use any variations of fats and sugars. It comes together in just a few minutes and it’s soo additive you’ll have to make it several times throughout your week (so just make a double batch, trust me). You can also press this mixture into a smaller pan and make granola bars (or even add chocolate).

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and line 9×13 with parchment.

- Pour your wet into the dry bowl and mix well.
- Pour your mixture onto your baking tray and bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. (Note, you can press this mixture into a smaller 9×13 pan and make bars).
- Once out of the oven, allow to cool only a couple minutes before picking up the edges of your parchment and separating anything that might be stuck together in a large clump.
- Let cool completely before storing in an airtight container.
