Granola from the supermarket is very moreish, mainly due to the high fat and sugar content which is why it pays to make your own at home. It really is limitless as to what you can add to your creation. Some go for nuts while others go for fruit. Mine is neither and never the same – just a mash mix of whatever is in the pantry at the time.
