I am grateful for Granola!
A staple in our pantry has become our “goodness gracious granola”. Our pantry is largely whole foods—like bottles of stuff—so to make granola is the perfect way to cycle through all these glorious bits and pieces.
Granola is a gigantic super-hero food! Munch it naked, sprinkle on fruit, top your pancakes, and the marriage with coconut yogurt and berries is epic.
To celebrate a great year I thought I would gracefully and gladly gift this glorious godlike granola to the people we have worked with through the year. To make a gift with gushes of love is a truly gorgeous gesture…so I set about making the greatest grandest granola.
I sourced local amazing ingredients mostly organic.

To make it is pretty easy. You mix everything except for the cacao nibs together. Don’t make it too moist, so go easy on the coconut oil. Bake it stirring a couple of times until it starts to colour. I packed my gifts into glass bottles I had.
I thought about calling it CROWnola but that was too weird! Goodness gracious was a saying my nana used and I love it because it is a beautiful way of exclaiming.
In loving service
