In 30 mins, fresh homemade granola is ready. It keeps up to 2 weeks when kept in an airtight jar. No need for those energy bars and intensely sweet store bought granola for breakfast. Keep the indulgent breakfasts like sweet potato pancakes and waffles for weekends. On a working weekday, all you need is a quick breakfast that comes together in a couple of minutes.
