Crunchy Chewy Vegan Granola
I absolutely love making my own granola. You save a ton of money, you can customize it to fit what you like, and it tastes so much better.
When I say customize what I mean is you can pick what kind of nuts you mix in there and decide if you want raisins or dried cranberries or other dried fruit. You can also pick the spices you add like cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice is yummy too. You can even get creative with adding different extracts instead of vanilla like almond or coconut.
