Granola Recipe #2: Cinnamon & Apple Granola

Loaded with warm spices, chunks of walnuts and crunchy quinoa. This is the perfect breakfast staple. Making my 1 year old scream impatiently and point a finger at the granola jar every morning…

Welcome my Bread Friend!

Have you ever made your own granola? I have been making it for years now, and will teach you how to make the most perfect, toasted and crunchy granola.

Cinnamon & Apple Granola recipe by Alisa Brown

My granola craze started several years ago with my best-selling recipe: Ginger & Honey Granola and I will share many more in this new Granola Series.
Did you miss the first one?

  • Granola Recipe no. 1: Cashew & Quinoa Crunch

I really never buy granola anymore — mainly because of the costs, hidden ingredients (refined sugar-I’m pointing a finger at you!) and being able to make it myself in just 30 minutes with only 1 bowl to clean and maybe a pot and spoon!

What I like about this recipe, is the added sweetness from the apple together with the warm spices! And the toasted, honey glazed walnuts are the ones everyone’s going for!

I like to stock up before the weekend and double up on the recipe (for a family of 4) because my kids and husband go a bit nuts — eating granola by the handfull as a snack, over Greek yoghurt or with milk for breakfast or sprinkled over vanilla ice cream for dessert (surprised about that one?).
