Peanut Butter Granola Recipe

Spread the Joy!

Okay i had to admit, i have consumed packets and packets of muesli when i was pregnant. i am not sure about the month, but sometime in my second trimester, i craved a lot of this stuff for breakfast. I know it is good with full of oats, nuts and dried fruits..But few months after that i totally disliked it, i never want to see that stuff again. Yes you guys know about pregnancy right..

Granola Parfait

From those days, Its been a while since i had this muesli. Few months back, i thought to give this a try at home, since i had all the ingredients on hand. And i should tell you, it was thousand times better than the ones which you get at stores..I made a traditional muesli and a chocolate one before and it turned out just wonderful. This is my new spin on muesli and i made it into a peanut butter flavoured ones and it was delicious.

I had few bowls of this muesli mixed with milk in the following days. You can have it on its own as well. You can add this to your muffins to make granola muffins..
