Making Granola at Home!


My kids are getting to that age where they really want to help me in the kitchen... and they absolutely love to help me make snacky types of foods. I'm fine with that so long as we can find healthy alternatives to some of the old standards. I've scoped out the web and found a couple fun sites sharing how to make your own granola from home! I've never done this, but think we'll give it a shot. Might make nice gifts for the neighbors too!

The first link: How to Make Granola shows you how to make your own granola without spending a small fortune. This site offers excellent step by step instructions and photos.

Another cool site is Healthy Eats, with it's Make Your Own Granola tutorial. A lot of great information here... only one photo, but a good resource.

Finally, I found Cooks.com has multiple recipes for homemade granola, including recipes for bars and cereals! Visit the start of their impressive list at Recipes - Homemade Granola and find that special recipe that suits you and your family best!

Have fun and happy snacking!
