Homemade Granola Makes the Perfect Party Gift

Whip up a batch right before you have people over to make your house smell like Fall - then send them home with a bag or jar-full to enjoy at home.

Nothing screams fall quite like toasted pecans, hazelnuts and spices. This homemade granola includes that and more with pepitas, almonds and maple syrup. The best part is that this comes together like a breeze - watch the video to see just how easy this is.
