DIY Granola Recipe

We love getting outdoors—but it also makes you snacky. That’s why we wanted to share this delicious and healthy DIY granola recipe. Make ahead and it’s there to fuel you on all your adventures.

We originally shared this recipe from our Canmore store manager, Leigha, on our Rocky Family Recipes blog. Leigha loves making this around the holidays, but we say why not have this delicious snack all year round. Feel free to experiment with the ingredients and make it your own.
