Deliciously healthy, crunchy and perfectly sweet, my Honey Baked Granola will become your favourite go-to breakfast!
I’m so excited to be sharing my Honey Baked Granola with you. Choc full of beautiful golden nuts and loaded with everything that’s deliciously good, I know you’re going to love it as much as we do!
It’s no secret that I’m a big breakfast person. Breakfast and brunch is always my favourite meal to go out for….and it’s a pretty safe bet that I’ll always order the Granola! Being in lockdown for the past two years though, means that I haven’t been eating out. But seriously, you don’t need to be at a cafe to be enjoying the best Granola ever!
WHAT I LOVE ABOUT MY HOMEMADE GRANOLA
Seriously, where do I start? Here’s just a few reasons why Honey Baked Granola is the best thing since sliced bread:
- It’s golden and crunchy
- Tastes like an Anzac cookie on steroids!
- The house smells insane when it’s baking.
- You can swap out different nuts and berries for your own favourites.
- Honey Baked Granola is perfect for gifting (and is very well received).
HOW TO SERVE HONEY BAKED GRANOLA
My husband eats this stuff before I can pack it away! If I can get it away from him, here’s how I enjoy my granola:
- Served with yogurt and Spiced Vanilla Poached Pears
- Make a parfait with Breakfast Panna Cotta and fresh berries.
- Add it to smoothies for extra sweetness and texture.
- Sprinkle on top of smoothie bowls.
- Keep it chunky and use it to snack on.
This recipe has been inspired by the delicious Granola from Chez Dré in South Melbourne.
I hope you enjoy my favourite breakfast! If you make it, I’d love to hear your thoughts -you can comment or rate the recipe below.
