Shelley’s Homemade Flaxseed Granola
We love granola, especially when it has a healthy dose of milled flaxseed!
This recipe is made with heart healthy whole grains, nuts, and flaxseed and is a family favorite. Thank you, Shelley Ekman, for sharing your famous recipe!
This homemade flaxseed granola is gluten free, vegan, and lower in sugar and fat than other varieties.
Try Shelley’s granola topped with flax milk, on top of granola, or by the handful!
