F/8 SPECIAL EDITION BLEND created for PhotoED Magazine

Print is not dead! And how fabulous to enjoy a fresh Canadian magazine with your coffee - at home. We tasted a lot of coffees to come up with the f/8 special edition. Rita, PhotoED’s editor, suggested a fruity and floral, lighter roast and we think this Kenyan and Ethiopian blend is a perfect fit.

Steel Cut Granola

Most mornings, I start the day with a big mug of coffee (Sparkplug, of course) and a bowl of homemade granola mixed with yogurt and fruit (fresh or dried, depending on my mood and laziness level. Dried is easier and faster.)

I recently bought a giant bag of organic, quick-cooking steel cut oats which led me to wonder how they would work in granola. Some googling and experimenting with a favourite base granola recipe led to this recipe. It's a teeny bit sweeter than my usual recipe but WAY less sweet than grocery store granolas. And is crazy high in fiber, protein and deliciousness.
