Granola is one of the world’s most popular breakfast cereals and snack treats, enjoyed by young and old alike. It is a toasted mixture of rolled oats, nuts, dried fruits, natural sweeteners, and spice flavorings. While granola is considered a health-food, it has many applications in the home bakeshop, mainly as a component for a wide variety of cakes, pastries, yeast breads, quick breads, and ice cream, just to name a few. Although there is an abundance of granola varieties available to purchase from your local health-food stores and supermarkets, nothing beats the taste, texture, and quality of homemade granola.
