It is always nice to have things on hand for breakfast to help save time in the mornings. It is even better to know that there are no additives! I love a crunchy, homemade granola and this recipe is a favorite for the chai spiced flavor. Keep your granola in an air-tight container to keep it fresher longer and use throughout the week to throw on oatmeal, coconut yogurt, or eat plain as a snack!
