    Packed with oats, nuts, seeds and the fragrant sweetness of maple syrup, this Maple Cinnamon Granola is a healthy and a wonderful way to start the day.

    I grew up in a family of breakfast eaters. Like my Mum, as soon as I am awake I am starving and need to fuel my body for the start of the day.

    My husband on the other hand rarely eats breakfast - I don't count his morning heart starter coffee as breakfast. The exception is if we go out for breakfast, in which case he has a big fry up.

    I couldn't fathom skipping breakfast each day. My stomach would rumble, grumble and make endless demands until I filled it with something. However, while I'm a definite breakfast eater, I'm not a big breakfast eater.

    The usual scenario used to be two slices of toast with a cup of tea. Granted, it wasn't particularly nutritious, but it was enough to satisfy me until lunch time.

    Lately, though I've been exploring different breakfast options and my favourites are a bowl of granola topped with fresh berries or toast topped with avocado, slow roasted tomatoes and feta.

    Both are delicious in their own way, but granola is the no-brainer that, even in a half asleep state, I can put together. It also has the added bonus of the crunch helping to wake me up on those mornings I'm a little slow to get started.

    This Maple Cinnamon Granola is a variation of my Honey Nut Granola. Packed with oats, nuts, seeds and the fragrant sweetness of maple syrup, it's delicious, healthy and a wonderful way to start the day. Handfuls of it also make a wonderful snack between meals.

      I'm the same way about breakfast. I always wake up starving too, and need something that will keep me going throughout the morning. This will definitely be a nice break from oatmeal! Thanks for sharing-- I can't wait to try this recipe!

      You sound exactly like my mum, she has to eat pretty much as soon as she wakes up. I don't know how she does it! Love granola for breakfast though, it's pretty much the only thing I can get my head round at that time of the morning. Love the flavours in this!

      That's funny, my husband and I are exactly the same. It baffles me that he never eats breakfast but if we go out he can polish off a big breakfast in no time. Maple and cinnamon sounds like the perfect combo to me.

      Same same. I don't understand how people can actually get moving without having breakfast! This granola looks pretty darn delicious!
