Hartstone Granola

Hartstone Granola

Tired of the same old, same old for breakfast?  Try something healthy and new with Chef Michael’s Hartstone Granola recipe.  It’s great by itself, just add milk.  Or, serve it with yogurt and fresh fruit.  Here at the Hartstone Inn, we serve it layered in our Lemon Mousse Trifle with a Banana Bread and a Berry Sauce.  Another idea – bag it up or put in glass Mason jars as a homemade gift!
