This might just be the best granola recipe I have ever found! Especially one that falls into the realm of sugar and gluten free. You can adjust any ingredient to fit your requirements, tastes and ingredients in your pantry. My favourite way to eat this for breakfast is simply with yoghurt and berries– divine start to the day! Prepare to celebrate in this sweet, crunchy and filling granola my Candida-Diet Friends!
