Our granola has no added oil or butter—and it contains a variety of healthful grains while maintaining a delicious flavor. Sprinkle it in yogurt, serve as a cereal with milk or take it along as a healthy snack. Hazelnuts and sesame seeds add an extra texture to this mixture, while the dried peaches and sour red cherries mix in additional flavor. We used honey mixed with pumpkin pie spice and vanilla to naturally sweeten the grains. Granola sold in supermarkets is often loaded with fat and sugar. Mixed rolled grains are available in health-food or natural-food stores and some large supermarkets.
