TWD~Granola Grabbers


This weeks recipe I would have to say was very good. We made a few changes though, we skipped the peanuts, almonds and raisins. Instead we used pecans, cranberries and added cinnamon extract, we decided to go for a more fall feel! We also accidentally forgot the wheat germ! Whoops! But we did use all whole wheat flour so I think that's maybe why they turned out. We brought these to our church potluck and everyone really liked them! Thank you Michelle for picking this recipe we really enjoyed it!
