Granola for Breakfast

Granola for Breakfast

It has taken me years to come up with a good granola recipe and I just love eating granola for breakfast. I make this breakfast granola every other month or so. Sometimes I make such a large batch that I do not have to make it again for a few months. This is my updated recipe going gluten-free and adding in healthier sugars.
