Chef's notes
For breakfast, enjoy freshly baked granola with homemade yogurt. It is the perfect way to start the day.
The wonderful aroma of the granola eventually woke Josh up, but I told him, 'If you snooze you lose!' Just kidding - he couldn’t have tasted the granola because of the nuts, so I made him steel cut oats instead.
This recipe is versatile; you can add other nuts or dried fruits as per your preference.
