DUTCH OVEN PEANUT BUTTER GRANOLA

The Simplicity of granola is its charm. Perhaps that is why this staple breakfast item has stood the test of time- from quaint pioneer kitchens to today. Or, to quote my late maternal Grandmother Betty-Lou, "Now, why would you ever buy that?"



"You could absolutely use an alternative nut butter here. If have all-nut allergies in your house, just skip it. That's beauty of granola because besides the oats, sweetener and oil, all other ingredients are fair game."

Notes: Oats are rolled, nut mix is almonds, pecans, and peanuts. Chocolate chips are semi-sweet.
