Jump to recipe

I always forget how good homemade granola is until I make a fresh batch. Even though it’s incredibly easy to make, and adapt to what you have on hand, I tend to go long periods of time between batches.

So here I am again reveling in the joy of homemade granola, this time flavored as an ode to oatmeal raisin cookies!

People hate on this cookie a lot but I think it’s one of my favorites, so I seriously love feeling like I am eating cookie bits for breakfast. I even added some toasted walnuts and coconut in there for added flavor. Optional but tasty.

My blueberry bushes are ripening as fast as I can eat them so it seemed appropriate to enjoy my fresh homemade granola on top of said blueberries and vanilla Greek yogurt. I even used a pretty cup for the occasion.

I eat breakfasts like this fairly regularly (minus the fancy cup) on the weekdays for a quick option that doesn’t require cooking anything. But you could also use this to jazz up a really pretty fruit parfait to serve at brunch too! Love when something can serve as breakfast and dessert.

Or you could just eat it straight, because it’s that good.
