Easy Sweet Honey Granola Recipe

This sweet honey granola is the perfect breakfast or the perfect snack!

Sweet Golden Honey Granola - perfect for breakfast or snacking! @foodapparel

I’m a serial snacker. Recently I was staying at someone’s house after some serious road tripping, and about halfway through the day, they confronted me. “Christina, you haven’t eaten anything all morning.” Hahaha. I started to laugh a little. She hadn’t seen anything, but when I started going back through the list of what I’d had, it was nothing small.

1) My daughter’s breakfast leftovers (steel cut oats, clementine, and whatever else wasn’t totally gross and mangled)

2) Granola bar

3) Basically at least one of each snack that we’d brought on the trip (dried mango, yogurt raisins, fruit snacks, cashews, “minions” (cheez-its)….

4) Water, always

5) More of whatever was conveniently within reach

 Being a serial snacker can be dangerous business if you have a lot of junk food around. So I’ve tried over the years to have a healthier spread for my habits.

This Sweet Honey Granola is a great snack for me and it’s so easy to throw together. It has a hint of honey, it’s not too crunchy but not too chewy….granola perfection. I make sure to always have a batch of it in my pantry in case of a snack emergency!
