This peanut butter granola has such an amazing flavor! It’s a delicious gluten-free, vegan breakfast or snack.

This peanut butter granola has the flavor of a peanut butter cookie. It’s crunchy and sweet, and the apricots add the perfect fruity touch.

This granola is a wonderful breakfast or mid-afternoon snack. I feel a little guilty when I eat this, even though I know it’s perfectly healthy for me. It’s that good.

If you’re looking for ways to get your children involved in the kitchen, homemade granola is a great place to start. Even young children can help measure and pour the ingredients. The proportions are forgiving, so measurements don’t need to be precise.

Children can stir everything together and help press the mixture down in the baking pan. When it’s done cooking, they can help transfer the granola into a storage container. It’s great to sit back and watch your little chef take over the kitchen.

This peanut butter granola is a favorite, but be sure to also try a few of my other easy granola recipes. There are so many different combinations!
