I worked on this recipe for a while trying to get it just right in order to use it in a variety of other recipes like granola bars, parfaits, and even just for a breakfast cereal. It’s not as sweet as many of the other recipes you may find, but that makes it perfect for using in other recipes that add additional sweetener. I’m happy to share the final results with you today. Enjoy!
