I like to source as many of my ingredients as possible from my own bioregion. In this case, the fat, sweetener, orange zest, fruit and nuts are all from my local farmer’s market. I like it with raw milk or plain full-fat yogurt and chopped Granny Smith apples for breakfast or as a garnish on fruit anytime. For maximum digestibility, mix with yogurt the night before and let it soak. Some folks like to carry little baggies of granola around for a snack, too. Cinnamon helps regulate blood sugar, and may help prevent diabetes. I mix it into all sweet, baked goods to even out the blood sugar roller coaster. Be sure to make as many of your ingredients organic as possible -- omit the orange zest if you can't find an organic orange, as orange peel can be particularly high in pesticides. Adapted from a recipe by Vanessa Barrington, who warns, "honey will produce a sticky granola that clumps together" -- you'll want to scoop it out with a spoon.
