Chocolate Almond Granolas

年纪大了，自然而然就想吃得健康点，以前会想买不同口味的面包当早餐，现在会为了身体，转吃燕麦片（oat），毕竟oat的GI值比面粉底，血糖升值慢，饱足感比较久，自然就不会想要吃零食。

本小姐很爱吃granola，一个星期可以吃完一整盒。当开始study granola的ingredient后，我发现supermarket买的granola其实隐藏着许多refine sugar，又high fat，最恐怖是你不了解的preservative

   

homemade granola的做法很simple，油糖的份量可以自己control，买好油用好的糖，健康饮食靠自己，不要被商家利用包装上的字眼欺骗了。

I had tried plenty of Granola recipe before, so far this is my most favorite version. Well, i guess no one can resist temptation from chocolate too right? ...hihi...
