When Trader Joe’s handed me flattened bananas, I made granola.
Really good, delicious granola. Perfect for snacking, with greek yogurt, over ice cream or just plain milk.

So wish we had a Trader Joe's! Anyway…this sounds like the most delicious granola ever.
Trader Joe's is a such a giver of delicious ingredients. And you are such a giver of delicious recipes to make with them! This sounds like the perfect snack food!
I had never heard of flattened bananas until now. Now that I see that they are, in fact, dried banana chips, it all makes sense. For some reason, when I first saw your picture, I thought they were just a bunch of squished banana in a bag. Dried banana granola is so much better than squished banana granola. Thanks for brightening my day (and making me look a little silly) 🙂
I love the idea of those three flavors together! Thanks for sharing the recipe!!
What an irresistible combo for granola! I'm intrigued by the flattened banana! I don't have Trader Joe's and am seeing all kinds of good stuff from them tonight.
I love granola…with flattened bananas and white chocolate I'm sure it just takes breakfast or snacking to an entirely new and delicious level.
