I’m sharing a recipe for savory Parmesan granola, combining all your granola clusters and crunch and turning it into a salty snack treat.
Spring took its time showing up this year, with winter lingering far longer than is necessary. Still, I am ready for summer to hit, even if the weather might not be just yet. I’ll let it slowly lull itself from frozen to steamy, but my menu choices have been slanting drastically towards fresh. My breakfasts want nothing but berries and fresh eggs, and by lunch I’m searching for a plate of greens.
Greens can be boring if you let them be, but summer salads need just a kick in the pants from a nontraditional topping to go from sad to sought-after. I turned my granola to the savory side to achieve this, mixing spices and seasonings and fresh grated Parmesan into a crisp crumble.
Head over to Attune Foods to grab the recipe to make savory Parmesan granola, and then come back early tomorrow to see just one of the ways I’ve been enjoying the crunchy topping once its made and on the shelf in my cupboard.
