Looking for the best ever homemade granola? Look no further! This is the best homemade granola recipe you will ever find!
I absolutely love granola. But, I don’t love its price tag. I can’t believe how expensive it is in the stores. So I scoured the internet. There are thousands of granola recipes out there. But, I couldn’t find one that wowed me. So, I took a bit of this one and a little of that one and compiled my own recipe.

This recipe turned out perfect! A little crunchy, a little chewy, a little sweetness…bliss! Since I concocted this recipe, I’ve made at least one batch every week. Some weeks I make 2 or 3 batches. It’s great mixed in with yogurt. Or, in a bowl with some milk. Or, just by itself.
Each time I make it, though, I add something different. I’ve used dried blueberries, dried pomegranates, dried cherries, walnuts…whatever I have handy. It’s all great!
