Tips For Making the Best Ever Vanilla-Almond Granola
- I like to combine all dry ingredients into a bowl first, and mix well.
- For a more toastier granola, I prefer to turn the oven off after baking and let sit for a good 20 minutes before removing.
- You can also add other toppings like: chocolate chips, dried cranberries (add after baking), walnuts, etc… to change it up a bit.
