Vanilla Buckwheat Granola
I love making my own homemade granola and getting creative with the flavors & textures. Buckwheat is one of my favorite grains- it’s a wholegrain (more nutrition), fiber-rich and gluten-free. Enjoy the smell of vanilla in your kitchen while this granola bakes!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup buckwheat
- ½ cup quinoa
- 1/3 cup flaxseeds
- ½ cup chopped walnuts
