The other day I made Pecan Pie Larabars. They came out really good. I had some leftover pecans, so I wanted to try a Pecan Pie Granola. I love granola and eat it almost every day. It keeps me full until lunchtime, which is something that cold cereal could never do.
I was really happy with the outcome of this pecan pie granola so I am sharing it with all of you! This makes a great afternoon snack as well. I used ground vanilla bean instead of vanilla extract in this recipe and it really makes a difference. I buy it off Amazon and I love the stuff.
We filmed a short video for this. You can view it below. For more recipes, you can subscribe to my You Tube Channel.
