I'm popping in for a short recipe for granola (and then running around to finish 100+ things before the holiday is here!) It is identical to my favorite maple-pecan granola with one change: different grains. I love keeping a handful of flakes from different grains on hand. Quite often, the flakes are still consider a whole grain (which is great!) You can find a majority of these grain flakes in your local bulk-bin section or through Bob's Red Mill. Each grain brings with it unique flavors and a lovely crunch (the Kamut is especially a favorite of mine!) Experiment around with different combinations to find the one you like best! (If wanting to keep gluten-free, I recommend using buckwheat and oats.)

(PS- My pup decided today was a good day to photobomb almost every shot.)

  1. This looks delicious. I love granola and yogurt for breakfast. It's such a light meal to have in the mornings when you're first starting your day off. It doesn't leave you feeling sluggish like other foods.

  2. Hahaha, I was wondering what that fluffy thing was in the foreground!? Is that a rabbit?

  3. Looks so delicious! How have I only just found your blog - everything looks so delicious!
