Hi! May I ask what it means when you say stirring the granola once after about 15 mins? Isn’t the granular flat on the baking pan? Do I mix it up again and lay it flat? Thanks!! 🙂
Yes! Sorry if that was unclear…. I mean give it a stir or mix it up with a spoon while on the baking sheet and lay flat so that it bakes evenly. Let me know if you make it. 🙂
