How to make Apple Pie Spice Granola
Preheat the oven to 375°Farenheight. Line a baking sheet with foil.
Start with the spice mix. In a small bowl combine the cinnamon, nutmeg, ground ginger, and cloves. Whisk until everything is combined and set aside.

Spread the mixture onto the baking sheet evenly. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Stir the granola around and bake for an additional 12 minutes.
Allow it to cool completely.
Sprinkle it over some Greek yogurt(our favorite is Greek Gods Honey Vanilla Greek Yogurt) or eat it like cereal.
Tips
If you want your granola just a little bit sweeter you can add a little bit more maple syrup.
Take this granola to the next level by adding sliced apples to the granola before baking.
