Easy Homemade Granola

There are two things that contribute to bad decisions in my day… if I go to bed too late or skip breakfast.

I can overcome just about anything that changes the course of my day, like unexpected errands, change in plans, or unplanned to-do’s if I am rested and energized. But if I skip breakfast I am setting myself up for a rough day because I will never feel full the rest of the day!

This Homemade Granola is easy to make and it’s pretty healthy, too! Yes, it has a smidge of brown sugar in it but when you look at the amount of granola this recipe makes it’s pretty minimal.

You can sprinkle this granola on Peach Crisp Overnight Oats , use it in a Strawberry Smoothie Bowl , or stir it into a Healthy Blueberry Yogurt Breakfast Parfait!
