This is the kind of recipe I would double and store in a large jar for a little breakfast luxury throughout the week… I might even take a handful out now and then as a snack too ;-)) x
This stuff works great as a snack indeed! I’ve been following your beautiful instagram feed, looks like you’re having a great holiday. :)
Love homemade granola…happy feasting!
Fabulous picture as always! The last time I made granola I burnt it, in a crockpot I might add!
Granola in a crockpot!? You are so INNOVATIVE! :)
I’m with you, Nicole! I’m ready for Fall… cool walks, short days, the color of Fall in all it’s beauty.. and sippin on hot Latte’s to stay warm… all YES! I love granola year round, so the flavors you’ve incorporated here are just what I crave. Your styling is beautiful, for sure and the yogurt and berries provide a nice contrast to the granola. Beautiful and thank you for your styling notes. I always learn something new from you!
Thank you, Traci! So happy to hear that. :)
Stunning, really it’s almost too pretty to scoop up! I also love your cardamom addition!
Yogurt, granola (homemade nonetheless!) and fruit are a great trio of taste and textures. One of my favorite evening snacks. :)
Thank you, Kevin! It did make a great snack indeed. I loved the cardamom too and I have a feeling that I have only scratched the surface of this beautiful spice, I’m going to have to experiment much more with it. :)
I have a thing for homemade granola, and this is perfect! I specially love the fact that it will make the house smell lovely!
Thank you, Ana! The smell was absolutely heavenly. :)
Oh! This granola looks soooo divine! I could totally dig into a big bowl of this, right now! The addition of all of those different spices looks so flavorful, and I definitely need to try this soon! Thanks for sharing, Nicole! :D
Thank you so much, Kennedy! :)
Oh wow. This is how to make granola gourmet! I love it. I would totally grab spoonfuls of it too, straight out of the jar! Easy to do with homemade granola, never do it with store bought (well, I never buy granola!) :)
Ooooh, gourmet granola, that’s what I should have named this. Would also be a good blog name, The Granola Gourmet. :)
Nicole, as usual your photography is stunning! The flavors in this granola just sound wonderful! Granola is one of my favorite things to snack on! Can’t wait to try!
Thank you so much, Mary Ann! This granola does make a good snack indeed, I kept grabbing a spoonful every time I went past the bowl. Hope you’re having a great weekend. :)
