my new favorite granola recipe

 

The Boy has begun to like fruit and yogurt parfaits, with a bit of granola sprinkled on top - preferably bought from the store, of course, so I quickly showed him how easy it was to make at home.  He rapidly went through the small but expensive bag of granola we had, and after seeing the prices of granola at the grocery store, I suggested to him how fun it would be to make our own.

Now I KNOW that at one point I had a great granola recipe that I would make whenever the mood struck, but for the life of me I can't find it.  I looked everywhere I could think of and came up empty, and mad, but luckily for me, I soon found a super super good recipe that was easy to make and absolutely delicious.
