For a video on the process visit http://www.farmtotablebabymama.com/homemade-granola-w-orange-blossom-honey-yogurt/ . We go through so much granola in my house. We love it for breakfast with yogurt and fruit, and the kids eat it as a snack regularly. After I started making it myself, I have to say that no store bought granola can compare with this crunchy chunky deliciousness. My kids will find it in the cupboard and eat it right out of the jar. It’s so so good. —FTTBabyMama
