I love that you used all the natural ingredients! These clusters are so delicious. I'll be making them often.
I love to make homemade granola, I've been making it since college, but I haven't made it 'clustery' like this, and it looks so good! I love how snackable it is 🙂
That looks so crunchy and good! I am totally intrigued by the addition of the vanilla! I bet that gives it a super flavor! I can't wait to try it!
