Granola: as delicious and basic as you can get

I'm a huge granola fan...like huge. I've tried several ways, several oils (yeah, I know), and until about two and a half years ago, I wasn't able to find a "healthy" granola that I loved. A couple friends of mine have a great clean/vegan/dairy free/gluten free blog that I love, and this recipe (HONEY GRANOLA) came from them. The blog is called green shakes and giggles and I DARE you to try out their blog and then tell me they aren't funny and yummy recipes. I dare you.......

Anyway, I got this recipe from them and Its been my go to granola recipe since then. I usually add some craisins or chocolate chips depending on my mood. Its great in yogurt, which is how I eat it mostly, but add some chocolate chips and its great for hiking.

HOWEVER....the husband doesn't LOVE the recipe. He likes it, and eats it and tolerates it, but he says he can "taste all the health" in it....yeah, I don't know what that means either. haha So I've had to search and search to find another recipe without vegetable oil...and I'm happy to report, I FOUND ONE! Its delicious, and has only 5 ingredients. You all have these ingredients, I'm sure of it!

This recipe came from Shape magazine

Peanut Butter Granola

2 Tbs Peanut Butter
2 Tbs Honey
1/4 teasp vanilla
1/4 teasp cinnamon
1 C Oats

chocolate chips

Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees. Put Peanut Butter and Honey in microwave safe bowl. Warm long enough to combine honey and Peanut butter. Once combined, add in vanilla and cinnamon. Mix in the Oats and stir well to combine. Spread out on silicone mat and bake for 10 min. At the 10 min mark, stir granola. Bake for 10 more min. Take out of oven, and let sit till warm to the touch, then add chocolate chips or leave out if you don't want them in, then eat! I store mine in an airtight container.

Enjoy!!
