Granola: Pecan, Almond & Cinnamon Granola
I love this granola served for breakfast or a snack. I eat it with greek yoghurt, seasonal fruit or frozen berries. It’s so good and this recipe makes a big batch for you to enjoy across the week so you don’t have to think about what you’re going to eat for breakfast!
It also takes a couple of minutes to prep (however long pouring everything into a bowl and mixing takes you!) and then 30 mins to bake whilst you relax, workout or work! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
It’s so good and it’s high in protein, fibre, healthy fats, magnesium, iron, B vitamins and selenium, antioxidants. It gives us sustained energy and helps to regulate our blood sugar levels so we won’t get energy dips or cravings!
