Another Paleo Granola Recipe

This recipe was revamped just a tad, i.e. I didn’t add the blueberries or vanilla bean. For the blueberries, I substituted dried figs. It came out tasting just great! Feel free to substitute your own nuts and/or dried fruit. Using the “base” is what makes this recipe tastes delicious. I’ve eaten it for breakfast and also for snacking.
