Granola is a hearty and healthy breakfast option.
Granola, which traditionally consists of rolled oats and honey, is a convenient breakfast and snack food. Granola is made heartier and more filling with the addition of nuts such as almonds and cashews, raisins, dates and dried cranberries or blueberries. You can make your own healthy granola or buy it pre-made in boxes or bags. Granola is typically crunchy and needs to be properly stored to remain fresh and tasty.
Instructions
1. Buy a plastic cereal storage container. Choose a clear container that is large enough to hold the granola that is to be stored. Look for a container featuring an air-tight lid with a rubberized silicone seal and a convenient pour spout.
2. Pour homemade granola or the contents of an opened box or bag of store-bought granola into the cereal storage container.
3. Press the air-tight lid onto the plastic container, creating a secure seal.
4. Write the granola storage date on a piece of masking tape. Press the tape onto the plastic container as a handy reference.
5. Store the granola in a cool, dry location, such as a cupboard or pantry, for up to a week. Place the granola in a refrigerator, where it will stay fresh for up to a month, if you don't plan to eat it right away.
