How to Make Dandy Blend Granola
If you love a versatile recipe, consider this a new favorite. Our easy baked granola recipe is perfect as is, but also makes for a great base granola recipe. Start by preheating your oven to 325ºF and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a bowl, add oats, nuts, vanilla extract, cinnamon, Dandy Blend powder, and sea salt. Mix together, add the maple syrup and olive oil, and then stir until well combined. Spread evenly on a baking sheet and then bake for 25 to 30 minutes. Let the granola cool completely before breaking apart. That’s the key to big, beautiful chunks. Store in an airtight container for up to two weeks, but it’s so tasty we doubt it will last that long. Enjoy on top of yogurt, in milk, as a crunchy snack, atop salads, and more.
