My Favorite Crunchy Granola

It smells like granola is in the air!

I just have to start this post and say straight away - this is my favorite granola. It’s so crunchy and so delicious and I kinda ended up eating the whole granola jar in 3 days. Woopsie (or not). But that’s what’s so good about homemade granolas, they are most often very simple to make, you can do a batch one day and have it for days ahead in your yoghurt or smoothie bowl. Just be sure you store it in an airtight container to maintain the crunchiness of the granola.
