Apple Pie Granola

Need a little bit of crunch in your life? Well this recipe for homemade Apple Pie Granola is perfect for any occasion! Enjoy with milk or yogurt for a delicious breakfast treat, add a bit to your dinner salad for an extra crunch, or even just eat it plain as a snack on a road trip! 

This recipe is great because you can use whatever Amoretti extract your heart desires! You can also switch out the ingredients and use your own favorite granola recipe and flavor it with whatever wild flavorings you would like! Some honorable mentions I also tried and loved are pumpkin spice, s'mores, birthday cake and chai! This recipe yields 6 cups of granola, so feel free to half the recipe for a smaller batch.
