I was frankly shocked when I read the ingredients on my Trader Joes granola, the SECOND INGREDIENT was sugar. What’s the point then? Granola has been fooling all of us for years into thinking that we’re having a super healthy breakfast and that we totally have our lives together. We have been lied to for too long. I took it upon myself to make a homemade granola that is both sugar-free and delicious.

2 cups rolled oats

1/2 cup sliced almonds

1/4 cup chai

3/4 cup shredded coconut

5 tablespoons honey

3 teaspoons cinnamon

4 dates chopped

1 teaspoon salt

Mix all the ingredients together on a pan lined with parchment paper, making sure the honey coats the granola. Bake at 350 until golden brown (about 30 mins), cool and enjoy! This stuff lasts a pretty long time so I would recommend making it in bulk 😉
