As much as I LOVE granola made of mostly oats, I have to say, this Nutty Grain Free Granola steals the show. It’s nutty, crunchy, sweet and just delicious.
I buy huge bags of nuts from Costco, and store them in the fridge to keep them fresh. As long as your nuts are raw (as opposed to roasted and/or salted), you are good to go!
My favorite ways to eat this granola you ask? Over oatmeal, smoothies, or fruit and yogurt bowls like the one pictured here. My absolute favorite though? Out of my hand as a snack on its own!
I hope you enjoy this granola (or should I say nut-nola 🙂 ) as much as I do.
