Peanut Butter Granola Recipe

Peanut Butter Granola

So here’s the thing, peanut butter is sort of my new obsession. And by obsession, I mean OBSESSION.

I bought this two-pound jar of it like two weeks ago, and then when I tried to dig out a spoonful yesterday I found it empty. What? That’s a pound of peanut butter a week! I swear that’s not good for me, even with the healthy fats.

So anyway, I decided something needed to be done. And then I decided that “something being done” includes using the new jar of peanut butter I got to make a recipe thing so that instead of eating the peanut butter straight from the jar, I would eat it at least in a civilized way.

I gathered my ingredients, measured out some peanut butter, mixed everything together, and made some awesome Peanut Butter Granola. I put it in a jar, took some pictures, ate a handful or two, and then proceeded to dig my finger into the peanut butter jar and shove it into my mouth.

Well, so much for being civilized. At least the granola was good.
