Notes
Making your own granola at home can be a fun and rewarding experience! Here are some simple tips to help you create your own batch of Best Golo Granola:
- Choose Your Base: Start with old-fashioned oats as your base. You can also add puffed rice or quinoa for extra texture.
- Sweeten It Up: Use honey, maple syrup, or agave syrup to add sweetness. Adjust the amount based on your taste preference.
- Add Nuts and Seeds: Include a mix of your favorite nuts and seeds. Almonds, walnuts, chia seeds, and pumpkin seeds are all great choices!
- Mix in Some Fruits: Dried fruits like cranberries, raisins, or apricots can add a nice sweetness and chewiness to your granola.
- Bake Until Golden: Spread your mixture on a baking sheet and bake at a low temperature (about 300°F or 150°C) until it’s golden brown, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.
- Let It Cool: Allow your granola to cool completely before storing it in an airtight container. This will help it stay crunchy!
