PlumpJack Granola

 

I made the PlumpJack Granola featured in this article .

It is delicious!  It tastes like crumbled cookies, as it should given the butter.  I made the following adjustments:

* Cut it in half
* Used Agave syrup instead of corn syrup
* Used sliced almonds as that is what I had on hand
* Used dried cherries as I like the almond/cherry combo; used slightly less than called for

A few other comments:


 

Don't skip the millet, as it adds a nice crunch.  You can buy it in the bulk section at WF, so you don't have to invest in a big bag if you don't think you'll use it again.


 

Next time I make this, I think I would try cutting down on some the sweeteners and butter.  This mix made the granola pretty soggy for a bit.  I think it might be because of the Agave.  However, I think a little less sweet and buttery would still turn out well.
