Granola can be eaten straight from the bag for a quick breakfast or snack. It is commonly poured into a bowl and served with milk, either dairy or plant-based, to soften its crunch. Another popular method is to sprinkle it over yogurt, adding texture and flavor to a creamy base. It can also be incorporated into baked goods or used as a topping for fruit salads and desserts. Some people blend it into smoothies for added substance and a nutty taste.
