How to Make Easy Homemade Granola
Is it easy to pick up a bag of granola at the store? Absolutely. I’m all about that ease.
But I also love to make granola at home. Making homemade granola can be a lot more simple than you may think!
Ingredients You Need to Make Granola at Home
Starting out with a simple recipe like this vanilla almond granola is perfect – you probably have many of these ingredients in your pantry right now!
To begin to make homemade granola, gather up these ingredients:
- oats
- cinnamon
- maple syrup
- honey
- flour
- almonds
- walnuts
- pecans
- sea salt
- coconut oil
- raw maple syrup
- raw honey
- vanilla
- coconut sugar
To make this homemade granola gluten and dairy free, I use gluten free oats and flour as well as almond milk and coconut oil. You can also add an optional 1/4 cup coconut sugar if you want your granola to be sweeter.
How to Bake Homemade Granola
This homemade granola is made in one bowl. You will put everything in one bowl and mix it up!
Once you have the granola mixed up, spread the granola out on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake at 300F for 45 minutes, flipping halfway. Let granola harden on the sheet pan for a few hours before storing in an airtight container.
What Can I Eat With Granola?
One of my favorite things to make with granola are cereal bowls! To make an easy granola breakfast add some Greek yogurt and fruit to a bowl with some granola.
Granola is a great snack that is great to take on the go and is also delicious served in a bowl with some almond milk.
