This recipe creates a marvelous granola from a medley of seeds and nuts.

Nut-Seed Granola - Mason Jar

It works well as a cereal, snack, on top of yogurt parfait or a garnish on a dessert.

Here is an idea to use the granola as a dessert topper. Choose a couple of fruits, unsweetened coconut flake and drizzle with a good balsamic vinegar.

    I could see this as a crunchy top for a pumpkin muffin! I’ll have to try it next week! I’ll sub the hemp seeds with flax seed since I have that.
