Nut Free Granola Recipes

NUT-FREE GRANOLA

Steps:

• You can watch the video in the post for visual instructions.Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit (165 degrees Celsius).
• Add all dry ingredients into a big bowl and stir with a spoon.
• Next, add dried fruit of choice (check the recipe notes below for options), maple syrup, sunflower seed butter, and vanilla extract. Stir with a spoon until all dry ingredients are coated and everything is well mixed.
• Transfer the mixture onto the lined baking sheet and spread it out evenly.
• Bake in the oven for about 20 minutes, stirring halfway through. Then gently press the stirred granola down with a wooden spoon (or spatula) so that it sticks together.
• Check after 16-18 minutes if the granola is already lightly brown. Watch it closely, to avoid burning. Remove the baking sheet from the oven.
• Let it cool completely without touching it. Once it gets cooler, the granola will crisp up. Store in air-tight containers.
• Enjoy your homemade nut-free granola with plant-based milk, or use it to make these delicious GRANOLA CUPS.

NUT FREE GRANOLA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F / 160°C. Line a big baking tray with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, mix together the oats, wheat germ, coconut flakes, cinnamon, ginger and sea salt flakes.
• In a small bowl, mix together the honey and coconut oil. You can heat it in the microwave for about 10 seconds to help it mix together more easily.
• Pour the honey mixture over the dry mixture and stir everything together very well, until all the oats look well coated. Tip the oats mixture onto the baking tray and use a spatula to spread it all out evenly.
• Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, stirring everything once halfway through. Remove the pan from the oven and do not stir again if you like clusters. Allow the granola to cool completely.
• Once the granola has completely cooled, break apart any large clusters. Mix in the raisins and banana chips.
• Store in an airtight container. It should last up to 2 weeks, but use your best judgment depending on how dry/crunchy you like your granola toasted.

SIMPLY THE BEST NUT FREE GRANOLA RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
• Prepare a rimmed baking sheet by lining it with aluminum foil and spraying with cooking spray. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, stir together oats and wheat germ.
• In a small saucepan, whisk together salt, brown sugar, honey, oil, cinnamon, and vanilla. Bring to a boil over medium-low heat, stirring frequently. Once the honey mixture boils, remove from heat.
• Pour honey mixture over the oats and stir until the oats are completely coated. Add cranberries and coconut and stir to combine.
• Spread oat mixture evenly onto prepared baking sheet. I like to use a wooden spoon to gently press together clumps of the oats to get those great crunchy clusters at the end!
• Bake for 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway through.
• Remove from the oven, press oats gently again with a wooden spoon to form those clusters, and allow to cool completely before storing granola in an air-tight container. The granola will continue to get crispier and crunchier as it cools.
