Cinnamon & Honey Granola

Layer it, mix it, sprinkle it, or even just eat it plain.

However you choose to serve it, I am convinced that granola is one of the most delicious things on earth. Out of all the granola I have tried over the years, I am hard-pressed to find one that I didn’t like.

This week, I collaborated with my good friend Ellie over at LikelyFit to create some of the most heavenly granola ever. The best thing is that it is natural, vegan, and doesn’t contain added sugars or processed ingredients.

It is a simple as stirring together a few staples (that you probably already have in your pantry) and you will end up with a perfectly crunchy, subtly-sweetened and beautiful granola that is impossible to stop eating.

We layered our granola into a parfait with chopped apples and plain greek yogurt, but it is so versatile, you can serve however you choose!

Added bonus? Your house will smell like cinnamon rolls. Pulling the pan out of the oven conjured up beautiful memories of Christmas morning and made it feel like a special occasion.

All that to say, if you love granola, make this. If you don’t love granola, you should still make this. I am confident that you will be a convert after a few bites.

   

Just  combine the wet and dry ingredients in a bowl and stir it up until everything is completely mixed and the granola holds together.

Then just pour it onto a baking sheet and spread it out into an even layer.

   

Bake it, and then serve however your heart desires!
