Ditch the store-bought granola and make this 7-ingredient oil free and nut free granola. This granola is simple to make at home and easily customizable with your favorite flavors.
I make granola quite often. I have such a fun time experimenting with different flavors. And I have to say, this granola might me my favorite granola to date!
Not only is it incredibly simple, it's customizable, and honestly, the flavors just work. There's the right amount of sweetness and crunch.
I devoured this granola so quickly and made a second batch within days of making the first. It's THAT good.
Step 1. Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
Step 2. Mix the oats, maple syrup, pepitas, chia seeds, salt, and cinnamon in a medium bowl.
Step 3. Spread on the prepared baking pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, until the granola is golden brown.
Step 4. Let cool completely on the pan, then stir in the dried fruit. Serve and enjoy!
The key to a crunchy granola is to let it cool completely on the pan. This allows the syrup to dry completely and bind each cluster together.
Patience is essential when you want all those clusters!
Feel free to play around with different seeds, fruits, and spices for your own spin on this granola
Yes. Oats are naturally gluten-free. Some oats are contaminated with gluten during the processing so if you're allergic to gluten be sure to buy certified gluten-free oats.
Use date syrup instead of maple syrup and choose a dried fruit that doesn't have any added sugar.
Thanks you God for this delicious granola. Let this granola fuel our morning. Amen.
