My sister-in-law recently made this granola recipe and brought us over a sample to try. It was yummy! Normally, granolas on the shelves of the grocery stores are jam-packed with sugars, sweeteners and dried fruit but when making your own you can control all the good that goes in and keep the bad out. Each 1/2 cup serving is high in fibre and protein.
