Recipe Tips
- There are quite a few things that you’re able to change with this recipe to make it more to your liking. For example, you can change the fruit or the nuts in the recipe to something that you will prefer.
- Cooking with the lid entirely on will likely result in quite a soggy granola as it won’t allow moisture to escape. It should still cook to be fine; just expect it to be a bit moist.
- Make sure the slow cooker granola is completely cooled before you place it in an airtight container. If you store it hot, then it is likely to steam and go soggy. It may also develop mold due to the increase in moisture.
