Coconut Almond Granola
Crunchy, chewy, and just a touch of sweetness, Coconut Almond Granola is perfect as a topping or for a snack to munch on. It’s not overly sweet like most store-bought granola and its toasty, subtle flavor makes it easy to mix and match with yogurt and berries. Although if you’re like me, you’ll be lucky […]
