Its incredibly quick and easy (and so crunchy!).
Theres nothing wrong with that, but its not exactly special.
And starting the morning with something special really sets the tone for the day.

One of my favorite special breakfasts ishomemade granola.
Its hard to beat really crunchy, nutty, lightly sweet granola with cold and creamy yogurt.
Plus, no reheating required!

I can get it in a bowl and in my mouth in minutes.
It can also take some time to make, toasting in the oven for up to an hour.
You only need three ingredients and 20 minutes!

It took less time than typical granola, cooking up in about 15 minutes at a higher-than-average heat.
And it tasted delicious.
Very nutty and not too sweet, I loved it.
And I still do!
But over time, Ive started fiddling with the recipe, as recipe developers are want to do.
And it makes a very tasty granola.
Natural peanut butter or almond butter works equally well.
Line a rimmed half sheet pan with parchment paper.
Add the oats, nut butter, and maple syrup or honey to a medium mixing bowl.
The mixture will be clumpy.
Dump onto the prepared baking sheet and spread out into an even, thin layer.
Bake in the center of the oven until the oats are starting to brown, 10 minutes.
Use a spatula to flip the oats in segments, rotating some granola from the center to the outside.
Put back in the oven and bake until golden brown and fragrant, 5 to 10 more minutes.
