Diet Food: No-Sugar Granola Stash Recipe

Diet Food: No-Sugar Granola Stash Recipe

Shop-bought granolas can be packed with sugar and oil. This is a super-healthy version that I always try and keep a batch of in my cupboard for breakfasts or snacks in a hurry. I love it with fat-free natural yoghurt and a few fresh berries, or with unsweetened almond or oat milk. Sometimes I’ll grab a handful straight from the jar to keep me going through a busy afternoon. A note from Eatopic: You can try different dried fruits — look out for dried cherries, blueberries, cranberries, apricots or even goji berries.
