This Cherry-Berry Granola Stuffing came about when Jessica, of Jessica’s Natural Foods, asked me to choose one of her granolas and create another recipe for her. I chose the Gluten-Free Cherry & Berry Granola that also happens to be nut-free. My older grandchildren are allergic to nuts, and they love granola. This granola, like all of Jessica’s granolas, is gluten-free and has no trans fats or cholesterol. The sweetened granola is speckled with loads of dried cherries, blueberries, and cranberries. It makes a delicious stuffing for poultry, fish, or vegetables.
For another recipe with Jessica’s granola, try Pecan Almond Coconut Granola Brittle. Between the Cherry-Berry Granola Stuffing and the Pecan Almond Coconut Granola Brittle, you have both a savory and sweet way to use this wonderful granola.
