I found this new gluten-free, vegan granola from KIND Snacks and have been using it instead of flour for my apple crisp recipes.

Sounds yummy, doesn't it?

It's vegan and gluten-free so I'm able to share it with all of my clients and they're loving it.

Plus, it's not easy finding a great-tasting dessert that's filled with whole grains – amaranth, quinoa, oats, millet and buckwheat. How's that for a festive holiday treat?
