Cacao Apricot Granola
In my years of cooking, I have always avoided making granola. Sure, I’ve grabbed some interesting boutique granola at the health food store that caught my eye, and always enjoyed it as a breakfast. Or on an occasion where it featured on the menu of the B&B I was staying at, I would gladly order…
