Cinnamon Granola

CYJ_Mother'sDayGranola

We all want to make our mothers happy, especially on her day, but sometimes the perfect gift escapes us. Flowers, perfume, and an afternoon at the spa have all been done before; so, too, has brunch at a lovely (but crowded) restaurant. This year, surprise her with breakfast in bed. Our Cinnamon Granola recipe is Dad-proofed: we’ve kept it simple, both in ingredients and technique. It’s also child-friendly, so invite the little ones into the kitchen to act as sous chefs. And, as a finishing touch, remember to clean up afterwards – nothing ruins a surprise as quickly as a sink full of dirty dishes and eggs stuck to the ceiling.
