This slow cooker Cinnamon Granola recipe is perfect with milk or on top of ice cream or yogurt. You can add nuts or dried fruit during the cooking process if you desire. This Cinnamon Granola is actually named Fruit and Nut Granola but I didn't use any fruit or nuts when making this so I had to change the name, obviously. It comes from Gooseberry Patch's Slow-Cooker Fall Favorites cookbook. I know it's still summer, but there's 2 reasons I am posting this recipe: 1. It's granola. … [Read more...]

If you have wanted to try your hand at making homemade Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, but never did it, these Peanut Butter Cup Bars are for you!
