I've made Alton's granola before and have given the recipe to many friends…it's awesome! I usually use dried cranberries or blueberries instead of raisins, and almonds/pecans for the nuts. It makes a great hostess or teacher gift when packaged in a pretty jar or bag.

Oh yum! Do you happen to have an extra spoon?
I hope you'll stop by and see my video for a French Macaroon video. There are bloopers. 🙂
I am also hosting a giveaway for a French Basketeer tote.

That strawberry does look perfect and HUGE! Great idea to use it with the granola – I appreciate you sharing the recipe! I haven't made homemade granola in a while – it is time. Would make a great gift to my son – who no longer lives at home – just a little mothering 🙂
God Bless,
Kathy
