Olive Oil Granola is addictive. There. I've given you fair warning. It's at once rich, sweet, salty, crunchy, and vaguely bitter from the olive oil. Sprinkle this over homemade yogurt, and the added tanginess has now put your tastebuds on full alert. It's all I wanted to eat for a week. (Yes, I know: I just got over my Coconut Tres Leches Cake for breakfast obsession and eating Broccoli Cooked Forever on everything before that. Clearly, I have issues . . . ) I'd love to take credit for this miracle granola, but the internet has well-documented the Olive Oil Granola phenomenon here and here and here. Mine is yet another adaptation, but really, it's impossible to have too many. It's that good.

Notes: This granola is on the sweet side, so you could certainly reduce or omit the brown sugar. I love it as written, especially with plain yogurt.
