How To Make Homemade Granola

A little helper in my kitchen (aka my 2 year old) help put this all together and it was so fun to let her dump ingredient after ingredient.

Granola making could not be easier! To make this granola, combine everything in a bowl, mix thoroughly, and bake!

Perfect for little hands to help with and would make amazing teacher gifts, neighbor gifts, and on the go snacks.

What Can I Use Granola For?

Besides the obvious just eating it by the spoonful, we love to put our granola on plain greek yogurt with a little bit of date syrup.

If you want something a little more fun, you could try out my Apple Cheddar Crumble pie or Apple Pie Crescent Rolls and use this apple pie granola as the topping! Granola DEFINTELY belongs on top of a pie!

What Can I Substitute in Granola?
