Is Making Your Own Granola Worth It?
There are endless benefits to making your own snacks. And granola is definitely one that’s worth putting in some extra time in the kitchen to make. Granolas tend to be packed with some less than ideal ingredients like processed sugars, gluten, and sometimes preservatives. Additionally, granolas that are paleo or low-carb can often be very expensive. Making your own at home can save money and provide the freedom to use ingredients that are right for you and skip others that you prefer not to use. Plus it seriously does make your house smell wonderful.
This is so far the best loved granola flavor that’s come out of my kitchen. While ginger itself has TONS of health benefits, I decided to add in another superfood into the mix. Lucuma powder is a naturally sweetener and also packs in a wealth of nutrients and antioxidants. If you don’t want to though, feel free to leave it out!
