Clumpy crunchy peanut butter granola!!!

Its one of my favourite snacks, straight from the jar or served on a mound of yogurt, usually @gleniskinsta greek yogurt.

A generous drizzle of peanut butter on top for good measure. This one is @manhattan.ie which is one my faves, both the smooth and crunchy are drippy, with that classic peanut butter stick to the mouth feel.

Perfect for drizzling, spreading, eating straight from the tub, and of course making granola.

Jumbo oats are a must for the best granola, in my granola munching opinion. You just can’t beat @flahavans jumbo oats. One of my store cupboard and breakfast staples.
