Homemade spicy granola recipe has great potential in solving most of the morning hassles. The super easy oil less, butter less homemade granola recipe is healthier, can be highly customizable to your individual preferences.
I try to start a day with minimized sins, I doubt who else in the world wish to start with tons of cooking oil infused breakfast. You might have already heard zillions of times hearing your doctor saying about good and bad cholesterol.
I do not wish to reprint the same, but still, want to write that cholesterol from nuts is good for the body whereas the fat from the oil is not.
This spicy granola recipe does not require any bad cholesterol, We are adding egg whites to make them stay crispy forever. After the grand success, I make them quite often, with different variations. You can also kick start your imaginations for your favorite variations.
Do not forget to look into other oats recipes like, Oats Adai, Instant Oats Pancake, Quinoa Dosa.
