Passover Granola
It’s day 3 of baby week and I’m honored to turn today’s reins over to another fabulous mommy-blogger, Alma Klein. Alma’s blog is awesome and can be found in my blog roll and here. Alma has graciously agreed to share her new Passover Granola recipe with us. I cannot wait to try it next year! Here’s what Alma says:
I’m semi-famous for my homemade granola, which I’ve bagged and handed out as holiday gifts two years running. But regular granola isn’t Kosher for Passover, store-bought K for P cereals are pretty inedible, and a girl can only eat so much matzo brei. So last year I figured out how to make a Passover version of my favorite breakfast treat. And although my 2 year old is a bigger fan of eating granola, my 5 year old volunteered to stay up a little bit later tonight to help make it.
