After the recent birth of our baby girl, we were taken aback to receive so many delicious gifts from friends and neighbours. As I’m sure you know, postpartum nutrition is paramount for a healthy recovery, and all these meals and treats helped nourish my wife as she rested and rejuvenated. One of our favourite gifts was a huge jar of granola from our friend Majella, which was such a welcome addition to our pantry that we decided to make a batch of our own to give to friends and family this holiday season.
Granola is a fantastic way to use up overripe brown bananas, jar-ends (such as jam, crystallised honey and molasses), and short-date or excess store-cupboard ingredients such as oats, nuts, seeds, dried fruit, and spices.
