About

I adore making granola. You can find a lot of unhealthy granola recipes on the internet. I experimented with other recipes & I came up with this one. This is my favorite granola recipe. My husband & my family loves it!

I call this one a christmas recipe, because there are red dried cranberries & green pumkin seeds in it. They are the primal colours of Christmas.
It is lovely with milk, yoghurt or with Kéfir,.... Mmmmmmmm....
