If you are a regular reader, you know that I have been experimenting with granola recipes lately. You also know that my husband’s favorite granola is the Everything Granola and my daughter’s is the Gingerbread Granola. Is anyone curious as to what my favorite is?
I knew that you would be, so I thought I would share my Honey Nut Granola with you too. I am not sure why I like this one the best, I just do. I will occasionally add some raisins to it in my bowl or maybe some fresh berries.
