Wee Granola
Pin
Who doesn’t like granola?! Scrooge, that’s who. But besides him?!
Crunchy and sweet, granola is the perfect
breakfast treat or snack to keep in your purse for when you and your little one
need a pick me up.
This wee granola is a powerhouse of nutrition containing dried fruits,
wheat germ and nuts — packed with vitamin B and magnesium to name just a
few. You can easily serve the granola in a to-go cup for your toddler
or pulse it in the food processor as a topping for fresh roasted peaches, yogurt or baked apples.
I always make a huge batch of this granola, sometimes even doubling the recipe so I have plenty for Kenya and other little guests who come over to play.
