I’m delighted to bring you another recipe featuring Peanut Butter & Co. PB, and for this little ditty I went with their delicious Mighty Maple.  Maple syrup is a classic breakfast staple, so fashioning this flavor into a breakfast-approved dish seemed like a natural conclusion, and luckily for once I was right.

The inspiration for this crunch was my tried and true granola habit.  As an unabashed texture freak I can’t even imagine having yogurt without granola (like, whyyy?), but doing the same old thang day-in and day-out quickly becomes a snooze.  So I decided to make a new kind of crunch to jazz up my routine, and I happily found that its use goes far beyond my morning meal.

Thus far I’ve topped this crunch over yogurt and oatmeal, ate it solo on-the-go, and mixed it with fresh berries, to name a few.  The possibilities are practically endless, and that’s one of the things I love about it most.  But the other major pluses?  The incredible PB + maple syrup combo is straight-up amaze, it’s sweet, nutty, and sinful without actually being bad.  The <30 minute cook time is also pretty damn great, and of course the versatility (again) cannot be stressed enough.

Plus?  PEANUT BUTTER.

I mean really, what else do you need to know?!
