1/2 cup walnuts

2/3 cup maple syrup

TIP - Try sprinkling Crunchy Granola on freshly sliced fruit like berries,

peaches, or apricots for a quick and delicious treat.

 

TIP - Mix granola with other favorite cold cereals for added flavor and crunch.

 

TIP - While this recipe contains no added fat, nuts are naturally rich in oils,

so the granola is not low in fat. Nuts are a great source of many minerals, so

don't avoid them altogetherinstead use modest amounts if you are watching your

calorie intake.
