There’s nothing like fresh spring strawberries paired with yogurt and homemade granola. Especially when it’s a simple, honey-sweetened granola like this one. It allows the flavor of the berries to shine through in the best way possible.
Besides the big crunchy clusters and delicious honey flavor, this granola features chia seeds which are like little nutrient power houses. I’m always trying to figure out more ways to include them in my diet because they are so good for you!
Chia seeds are a great source of omega-3 fatty acids which are especially crucial for those of us that are getting an excess of omega-6 fatty acids in our diet from foods like processed oils and nuts. Omega 3-fatty acids are vital for keeping inflammation in check which is super important for optimal heart and brain health.
In addition to omega-3s, they are packed with protein, fiber, iron, calcium, magnesium and potassium. All in one little seed! It’s kind of crazy.
My regular readers know how much I love Bob’s Red Mill. I’ve been lucky enough to work with them for 5 years now and it’s been such a natural fit because I was a fan of the brand long before they even knew who I was. Even if a stranger asks me for recommendations at the grocery store, I point them to Bob’s because I truly believe they’re going to have the best results with their products. Their chia seeds are always top notch quality and I personally love that their certified organic and gluten-free.
This Honey Almond Chia Granola cannot be easier to make:
Allowing it to cool completely before stirring or breaking it apart is key to getting big clusters. If you don’t want big clusters then feel free to stir half way through the cooking process.
