GRANOLA RECIPE HEALTHY
I love this recipe! This homemade granola recipe is really easy and straightforward to make. Furthermore, you have a huge variety of healthy ingredients that you can try and mix together too.
This healthy homemade granola recipe is refined sugar-free as it’s naturally sweetened thanks to maple syrup. Moreover, is also gluten-free as I used gluten-free oats. To make sure you get gluten-free granola check the labels when buying the oats.
