Homemade vanilla orange zest granola! The taste and smell of baking granola is infinitely better than literally anything store bought. Plus I love being able to modify ingredients based on what I’m feeling like eating for the week (and bonus: you know exactly what’s going into your granola!)
Try this recipe and eat it on its own, add to greek yogurt with fruit, sprinkle on top of smoothies for some crunch, or eat in a bowl with milk!
