If you haven’t heard, Wake Up to Waffles has some exciting news to share. The “150 + Creative Toast Ideas” eBook is finally finished!
It must have taken me more than 3 months to finish the eBook. Boy did I eat a lot of toast! It sure was great toast, though. I’m super happy with how it turned out and I can’t wait for you guys to see it.
I still have yet to figure out how to connect the eBook to the site’s newsletter because of it’s size, but for the time being, if you want to buy the eBook now, you can CLICK HERE to buy it. And, of course, let me know what you think. 😉
Now, on to the granola. I’m proud of myself for coming up with this incredible combination. I could seriously eat this every single day. It tastes amazing with vanilla Greek yogurt and banana slices!
This granola is:
Wonderfully nutty
Perfectly crispy
Deliciously banana-y
Perfect when paired with Greek yogurt
Insanely delicious
