| Hippies highlighted granola |
Granola is often referred to as hippy food.
Could it be because it’s simple, sweet and a little nutty? Not really, it is because these free spirited
souls highlighted granola in the 60’s.
It was considered controversial because it was radically ‘natural’. Often made from scratch contrary to the highly processed breakfast cereal
readily available in the day.
Although Recipes to the Rescue was not around in
the 60’s we did publish a granola recipe back in the late 90’s which my friend Sandy has been making ever
since. She recently wrote and asked for an updated version because the recipe
required milk powder which is both expensive and hard to find today. So we have refreshed the recipe and made it
simple, tasty and not too controversial.
Enjoy.
