Gluten-Free Classic Granola

All Breakfast

DO YOU LOVE GRANOLA? ME TOO!

I know we can all appreciate a quick breakfast or snack, and this classic granola is perfect!

After I became a Mom I appreciated a quick breakfast I could give my kids even more!  For most, cereal is the easy go-to but those boxes tend to be full of tons of sugar and artificial ingredients… not something I want to be giving my kids (or me)!

Buying artisanal granolas is a nice idea, but that can get expensive fast!

This granola makes a wonderful snack or breakfast.  It also stores beautifully.  Make a double batch for home or spread the love and share as a nice homemade gift!

My recipe is low in sugar and big on fiber.  And while the recipe is filled with nothing but good stuff, too much of anything is never a good thing!

The recipe makes about 5 cups and I recommend a single serving to be no more than 1/2 a cup.  Pair it with greek yogurt, or coconut yogurt to complete the meal and get in those healthy fats.

Can we use an alternative or omit the egg? I’m sensitive to egg and they make me unwell.
