Notes
*natural peanut butter can also be substiuted in place of the coconut oil or butter however please ensure your peanut butter is runny!! If it is thick or getting close to the bottom of the jar and lacking the natural oil it will not be wet enough to hold the granola cups together!
*for a bosot of protein you can replace ¼ cup of oat flour with ¼ cup of vanilla or unflavoured protein powder!
