I was actually looking to recreate a popular lemon bar that’s just too expensive to justify buying often, but I ended up with this winner! This lemon poppy seed granola is incredibly versatile. It makes great no-bake granola bars but also toasts up beautifully in the oven and is the perfect topping for granola, fresh fruit and a little honey, or just to munch on by the handful. It’s just sweet enough that it doesn’t feel like dessert but more like a little treat. 

I like to keep homemade granola on hand when I have the time because it’s just so much better than the store bought stuff! You can regulate the sugar and add different mix ins if you want. HINT HINT: Next time, I’m tossing in a few dried cranberries or blueberries with this Lemon Chia Seed Granola for a fun mix of sweet and tart!
