Oatmeal Raisin Granola

Oatmeal Raisin Granola - Heaing and Eating

This oatmeal raisin granola is gluten and dairy free, and tastes just like an oatmeal raisin cookie. This was my first attempt at granola and I’m very happy with the results, and how easy it was to make a large amount. This recipe is a very budget friendly and convenient alternative to breakfast bars and gourmet granola, and is great for meal planning since it makes a ton of granola! Seriously, you will have enough for the week as well as some to give away to family and friends. Even though I did use natural sweeteners, granola is still high in sugar and should be consumed in moderation or even as dessert. I think it would taste just as delicious over some vanilla ice cream as it would over yogurt.
