Preparation

Chef’s notes

Recipe adapted from my honey almond granola.
*Nut and seed substitutions:
If you are using large, whole nuts (pecans, walnuts, etc.) follow instructions as directed. If you are using small nuts or seeds, like pepitas, or large coconut flakes, wait to stir them into the granola until you remove it from the oven halfway through cooking.
