gluten free granola

Gluten Free • Refined Sugar Free

Listen, I'm not going to tell you what to do but stop buying store bought granola. It's filled with sugars, seed oils, and whatever else they put into processed foods these days. This homemade one is gluten-free, refined sugar free and just the right amount of sweetness. The toasted nutty flavor is everything you'll ever want. Top this on yogurt, smoothies or just snack on it right out of the jar.
