golden chai spiced granola yogurt bowl

I love making my own granola.  It’s so easy.  I know exactly what is in it.  I can make my granola organic and free of additives.  I can have a huge batch baked in 30 minutes.  You will love this golden chai-spiced granola on top of yogurt or just to snack on during the day.

How to Make Golden Chai Granola

nuts in a black bowl

  1. In a small saucepan add the oil, honey and coconut sugar
  2. Stir in salt, chai spice blend (cinnamon, ginger, cardamom). Bring to a low simmer and stir constantly until mixture blends together.
  3. Remove from heat and immediately pour over granola mixture.
  4. Stir until all of the ingredients are coated with the honey mixture.
  5. Spread granola on a silicone lined baking sheet (parchment works). Place in a preheated 350F oven and bake for 15 minutes.  Granola should be golden.  Once removed from the oven you have 2 choices.  1) separate the granola with two forks into smaller pieces or 2) leave granola until cool, then break into large chunks.  You choose.  I like a little of both.  Small piece for sprinkling over yogurt and large pieces to snack on.

I love avocado oil.  I use it for everything.  It has a very mild flavor and goes well in just about anything.  Avocado oil is a healthy fat, which can reduce cholesterol and improve heart health, just to mention a few.

To make this yogurt bowl you will need:

  • 1 cup greek yogurt – I like full fat, 100% grass-fed organic.  It’s so divine and creamy
  • sliced strawberries
  • pomegranate arils
  • golden chai spiced granola
  • honeycomb or drizzle of honey, raw
  • a few chopped pistachio nuts
  • rose petals, if desired

Spoon 1/2 cup yogurt into a serving bowl.  Arrange granola and fresh fruit on top.  Drizzle with honey or a slice of the honeycomb  (yum)
