Blueberry Muffin Granola
This blueberry muffin granola recipe with almond slices, dried blueberries, and a sprinkle of cinnamon and nutmeg is one of my favorite go-to snacks. It perfectly pairs with a bowl of yogurt and a cup of warm coffee.

Notes
- I highly recommend using sprouted oats for your granola. I’ve swapped my generic grocery store oats for One Degree Organic Food, Sprouted Oats. It has been a game changer making it easier on my gut to digest. Learn more about sprouted grains and oats here.
- You will want to use an edged cookie sheet for baking to prevent liquid from leaking into your oven.
- Avoid mixing in your dried berries before baking the granola! Trust me, I accidentally did this and it ruined my granola.
