Simply The Best 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.

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.
