Easy Healthy Gluten Free Homemade Granola that is customizable to fit your preferences! Add in your favorite nuts and spices for a delicious treat!
I am currently obsessing over these healthy recipes for oatmeal cookies, strawberry cookies bars, and of course this amazing homemade granola recipe! I have always been a granola lover, whether it is on its own or part of a healthy breakfast I am always down for a handful of granola! Granola is one of those things that I find is secretly NOT healthy but most people think it is, most of the time it is chock full of sugar and unnecessary add ins but not this recipe! This recipe is sugar free and you can have your favorite nuts and seeds in it!
INGREDIENTS YOU NEED
- 3 cups gluten free rolled oats
- 1 cup raw nuts/seeds, chopped
- 6 tbs sugar
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted or coconut oil for dairy free
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 large egg white
Instructions To Make Gluten Free Granola
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.
- In a large bowl combine your oats, nuts/seeds (I used a mix of chopped almonds, walnuts, and hazelnuts), sugar, and cinnamon. Mix until everything is well incorporated.
- Mix in your vanilla extract and melted butter. Once that is all mixed in, add in your egg white and mix one more time until everything is very well mixed together.
- Pour your granola mixture onto your prepared baking sheet and spread into an even layer, bake in your preheated oven for 15-18 minutes. It will still be soft when you take it out and will harden as it cools.
- Once your granola has cooled you can break it into small chunks and enjoy!
