Granola is one of those rare items that can be eaten just the way you like. If you are bored of eating raw granola, you should make granola bars that taste great and are super-energetic. To make granola bars, add some honey, peanut butter, and puffed rice to make the granola sticky.
Grease and line a shallow pan with butter paper and then add the mixture to the pan. With a spatula, spread the mixture evenly inside the pan. Refrigerate to harden. Cut it in pieces or bars as you like. Wrap them in butter paper or plastic wrap and take them with you to snack anytime.
For a cozy evening, you can put granola on your vanilla cakes. When the cake is out of the oven and is still warm, drizzle some honey on top. The honey will help granola stick to the cake. Sprinkle the granola and if you like, add additional seeds and nuts to make it tastier. A customized granola cake can taste delightful with some hot chocolate or coffee.
Banana and granola go hand in hand. To make banana and granola cookies, mash 3 ripened and medium-sized bananas in a bowl. Add half a cup of granola to it and mix. Add sugar if you like but the natural sweetness of banana and sugar in granola should be enough for many.
You can also add semi-sweet chocolate chips for sweetness. Shape them into small cookies and bake at 200-degree Fahrenheit for 10 minutes or until golden brown. Remove and place on a cookie rack and once they are cool, store in an airtight container. They can last up to a week.
Granola cookies are just like oatmeal cookies but with extra nuts and dry fruits. To make granola cookies, you can mix the regular sugar cookie dough with some granola and bake. Adjust the amount of granola in the cookies. A good rule of thumb is half granola and half sugar or chocolate-chip cookie dough.
Yogurt has all the healthy bacteria your gut needs and the wholesomeness of granola can make your breakfast tasty and nutritious. When bored of eating granola with milk, you can use yogurt. If you like, you can add fresh blueberries, raspberries, or strawberries to enhance the flavor.
