This recipe has been rattling around in my head for a couple of months now but yesterday I got down to the business of actually making it and writing it down. The process of creating a recipe can be a long one or it can be super fast and easy which TBH is usually the way it is for me. I don’t do well with complicated recipes. 

I also don’t do well with long winded blog posts leading UP to the recipe which is why my posts are generally to the point🤣

Let’s be honest, who among us has the time required to actually read a long post leading up to the recipe. It’s sad to say but I’m guessing the reality for MOST of us, so without further ado….

  1. This is so good!!! I did swap two things because I didn’t want to go to the store again. Toasted quinoa for groats. Cinnamon and nutmeg for the cardamom. This is the second granola from Teri I’ve made. So much better than store bought! Thank you!

  2. Hi Teri-Ann
    I am making your Blueberry Tahini Cardamom Granola and I just mixed the liquid and notice that you have olive oil listed in the ingredients but you mention coconut oil in the instructions. I used olive oil so fingers crossed this will work out!
