Instructions

  • Start by mixing the dry ingredients together and set aside.
  • Now combine the peanut butter, butter, maple syrup, and honey in a microwavable container. Set in the microwave and heat it up till the butter is melted. Mix everything together until smooth! You can also do this step on the stovetop if you prefer. Add the flavoring after this step.

  • Transfer the granola to a baking sheet and press it down with a spoon or your hands.
