Granola is a healthy mix of rolled oats with nuts, any sweetener and simple carbohydrates like puffed rice baked together for a breakfast cereal bowl or anytime healthy snack.

Granolas dates back to 1863, as a breakfast option for covering a balanced and energetic meal to start the day. These were baked nicely and stirred in between to keep them loose and maintain uniformity. Later, people started to add dates and raisins and even chocolates to awaken their taste buds. Often, granola is eaten with yoghurt and a drizzle of honey on the top. It has made its way into the baking world and is used as a topping for desserts and pastries. Do not misinterpret Granola as Muesli – you can call it a bit similar but Muesli is not baked or sweet either. It has the similarities of a trail mix.
