Cooking with Kids- Vanilla & Cinnamon Granola
Updated: Jun 15, 2020

This summer, my kids aren’t doing on-site day camps due to all the Coronavirus restrictions. So I set up “Mama Camp” for them here at home. I’m filling their days with a variety of programs to keep them entertained. I got together with my boys and asked what they would be interested in learning this summer and together we came up with some goals. Note: I said "together" because I have my own goals for them as well. Wink.

One of my goals is for my boys to learn to cook and bake. So when they get older they will be able to wow their significant other with some impressive cooking skills. I would like them to learn to make an entire meal from appetizer to dessert. However before we dive into the wonderful world of cooking with mama, I thought we first get them comfortable in the kitchen. So they become familiar with measuring, cooking tools, and being able to follow a recipe. So I decided to start them by making something fairly simple and that they love and enjoy- My Vanilla & Cinnamon Granola.

Here is the recipe for you to try with your kiddos at home this summer:
