Granola Pie with Maple Yogurt
Who says granola has to be served in a bowl with spoon in hand? This whimsical make-ahead riff on a breakfast classic removes the woulda-coulda-shoulda about starting the day on a solid nutritional note. And it provides a nourishing mixture of quality carbs, protein, and healthy fats. [callout]

Kids in action

Let the little ones have fun mixing together all of the ingredients in a bowl and then pouring the nutritional goodness into a cake pan. [/callout] [callout]

Tip

The size of granola pie slices can be adjusted based on appetites and reheated in the microwave or oven. [/callout]
