You can make this homemade granola without nuts, using any mix-ins you like, and with only 5g sugar per serving. And Ill show you how to make crunchy granola with some SERIOUSLY impressive chunks! The key is to press the granola into the baking sheet so its in an even layer while baking, then flip it in large sections, and dont break it up too much before it cools. Dont get me wrongI love the deliciousness & convenience of a bag of sugary store-bought granola, and I still choose to eat it plenty of the time. Store-bought granola isnt bad! And when we do choose a pre-packaged store-bought option, its so important that we lighten up on ourselves, and give ourselves permission to make our lives easier.
