Apple Cinnamon Granola (No Refined Sugar)

Apple Cinnamon Granola.  For me, cold cereal just doesn’t cut it.  Who has ever had a bowl of cereal that kept them full until lunchtime?  Um, no one!  I am usually starving an hour later!

That is why I love homemade granola.  Homemade granola keeps me full until lunchtime.  Apple and cinnamon go so perfectly well together too.  This apple cinnamon homemade granola is one of my favorite recipes.  Homemade Apple Cinnamon Granola  is great as a snack, over yogurt or as a cereal.

This homemade granola is a great way to start the day and it’s also gluten free.  A yummy breakfast.

Here is a short video of my daughter and me showing you how easy it is to make this recipe.  For more videos, you can subscribe to my You Tube Channel.

Recipe Notes

I usually eat mine with fresh berries and homemade almond milk .  This granola would also be good sprinkled over some vegan yogurt.  I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
