oil free granola

Healthy, crunchy, homemade granola that everyone will love. No need to buy the oil-laden, sugar-sweetened, overpriced stuff in the stores ever again!

Crunchy Oil-Free Granola

rolled oats (for the millet version, use 2 1/4 cups oats

maple syrup (plus an add'l 2 Tbsp

tsp sea salt

cinnamon

tsp ground ginger

mixture of dried fruit,

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment or a silicone mat.

Combine the oats, millet, nuts and seeds in a large bowl. Whisk together the maple syrup, salt, and spices in a small bowl. Pour the maple syrup mixture over the dry ingredients and stir until everything is thoroughly coated.

Spread the granola onto the prepared pan and bake 30-35 minutes, stirring at the 15-minute mark. For crunchy granola, you want everything to appear fairly dry. If you check the granola around the 25- to 30-minute mark and parts are still moist, stir and bake for several more minutes.

Let the granola cool completely on the pan, then add dried fruit. Store in an airtight container at room temperature. For extended storage, granola can also be kept in the refrigerator or freezer.

This delicious vanilla almond oil-free granola is great for topping yogurt, as a plant-based, homemade cereal or just as its own for a perfectly healthy snack. It is really easy to make as well as being refined sugar-free and gluten-free.

Easy Vegan Granola Recipe 

Real Maple Syrup

tsp Vanilla Extract

Salt

Cinnamon

Rolled Oats (not Instant), Gluten-Free if necessary

Pumpkin Seeds

Almonds

Walnuts

Unsweetened Coconut Flakes

Preheat the oven to 325F. Add the Maple Syrup, Nut/Seed Butter, Vanilla Extract, Cinnamon, and Salt to the base of a large bowl. Whisk until evenly incorporated.

Pour the Oats, Pumpkin Seeds, Almonds, and Coconut into the bowl and fold them into the wet mixture, until all pieces are evenly coated. Transfer this mixture to a greased or lined baking tray and press it into a thin, even layer using a spatula.

Bake for 20 minutes on the bottom rack of the oven, then remove and use a spatula to toss/flip the granola. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 6-7 minutes, then remove.

Immediately sprinkle the Chocolate Chips or Dried Fruit over the Granola, using a spatula to gently toss the mixture. If you’d like the Chips to completely melt, stir them a bit more until they melt completely. Let the Granola and Chocolate cool completely on the tray before removing.

Serve as desired; store leftovers at room temperature or in the fridge (recommended for crunchier granola) for up to one month.

I love this recipe, the funny part is, I made it exactly like yours but came up with it on my own through experimentation, I just found yours and your site, what an awesome site. I use gluten free oats and I make my own nut/almond butter and use that. I live in the middle of almond orchards so almonds on the cheap come easy.

Use parchment paper and bottom shelf. That worked perfectly

I just tried subbing half the oats with steel cut oats, and they came out great!

Delicious recipe and I even cut back the maple syrup to 1/4 cup. Thanks for all you do.

This was awesome! Super easy and I ended up baking it in the oven maybe 5 more minutes. Everything clumped up well and the flavour is great! Not too sweet and a bit of depth from the tahini

Used sun butter that had been sitting in my cabinet forever &amp; it's delicious. So crunchy!

Tried it again with a can of coconut cream I had laying around instead of the maple syrup &amp; nut butter - another hit!

I’ve been on the hunt for a good clean granola recipe for so long. I don’t like to buy in stores and I wanted a recipe with very few and REAL ingredients. This one is perfect!!! I made it- so easy and it’s delicious!!!! I’ve been snacking on it all day!!

This is now my go-to granola!! I love it. I usually add about 3/4 of dried fruit (more coconut flakes, dates, and craisins - yum!). Maple syrup is super expensive where I live, so I use honey instead and it's amazing! Thank you for sharing this recipe!!

Amazing recipe. I added hemp seeds, chia seeds and dates. Will definitely make this again. Thanks for sharing.

Awesome granola! I prefer this to all the other (many, many) granola recipes I've made with oil. Granola tastes so much better without oil, I think oil gives it a weird aftertaste. I used half almond butter &amp; half tahini---loved the flavor and texture too. Thanks for such a great recipe. I'm so happy to make amazing granola without oil!

Just made this with brazil nuts, almonds, and walnuts, and it is DOPE. Thank you Caitlin!

Just made two batches- the reviewer above who mentioned 20 minutes being too long was right for me too- luckily I saw her notes and checked after 15 minutes- it was PERFECT! Delicious delicious delicious. Thanks for the recipe! Can't wait to share it with people!

Making them for a second time! Absolutely loved them the first time and thought I should share my thanks! Its my first time trying out a granola recipe and its always a great feeling when something new to you turns out nicely

Delicious! Made this tonight and can't wait for my three little kiddos to wake up and eat it for breakfast tomorrow. A great surprise for them!

This is better than any store-bought granola I've ever tried! I have a nut allergy so I subbed the nut butter for sunflower butter butter and added chia seeds, sunflower seeds, pepitas, and raisins. Thanks for the super easy and delicious recipe, I don't think I'll ever be going back to store-bought!

Thank You!! I've made this several times and everyone that tries it always asks me for the recipe.  It makes the house smell divine and it makes a great any time snack but it's a must have for hiking. You are awesome and I appreciate all of your recipes!

I made this with sugar free syrup ???????? DELICIOUS. Instead of sunflower seeds I used sesame seeds, and instead of almonds snd walnuts I just used 1 cup of mixed nuts. Thank you for this recipe so much.????

My favorite granola! I've been doubling the recipe and making it every week. My family keeps gobbling it up! Great with homemade soy yogurt and blueberries!

Always a granola win whenever I use this recipe. Bought some blackberries that were going bad from the supermarket and I knew the only thing that would do them justice was this granola, some coconut yoghurt, and banana. Yum. Thank you for your quality recipes, Caitlin!

I really like this--especially the chunks it makes and how healthy it is.  Next time I think I'll try peanut butter instead of tahini, as I think I'd like a bit more of a sweet taste.  Thanks for the recipe!

I make this so often - it’s one of my favourite recipes! So versatile - I’ve used both 1/3 cup maple syrup and 1/4 cup (more cost effective) and they both yield the same results. Thanks !

This hits the granola spot for me! I used 1/3 of unroasted cashew butter, 1/3 cup agave nectar, cinnamon, vanilla and salt. Then I put more cinnamon because “Duh”! 

I ate some with 1/2 perfectly ripe banana and some soy milk. I added hemp seeds. I’m going to make more, I’ll definitely do a chocolate chia seed granola as well as a peanut butter one. I think I would stick cranberries, hemp seeds, sunflower seeds, and maybe cashews or raisins in this vanilla neutral-tasting granola. 

It’s perfect. Sometimes I just want to eat granola and nothing else with it. This is the kind you can do that with because it will never skimp you on flavor. 

Thanks for a new way for me and my toddler to enjoy our beloved rolled oats! (We buy 6 lbs a month, lol!)

I just tried this Granola OMGOODNESS 
I’m so excited ...... it’s so delicious ???? 
I making it a second time to take with me for my daughter and her partner, I want to make it for everyone..... lol 

Thank You for the recipe ????

What would your best option be for a “Nut Free” version as I have a friend that’s highly allergic to ALL NUTS ????

This granola is super easy to make and absolutely delicious. I also like that it is versatile enough to use whatever nuts, etc. I have on hand. It is so good, it is hard to keep it in the house very long. We even find ourselves eating it for dinner sometimes. : ) Thank you for sharing it with us.

This is the recipe I've been looking for. I made it with almond butter and subbed pecans for the almonds. So yummy. I had to make myself stop eating, or I might have eaten the entire batch in one sitting! I can't wait to experiment with other combinations.

On another note, I wish it was possible to print the recipe without the "Privacy &amp; Cookies Policy" covering part of the instructions.

Should the granola be hardened or crunchy when it’s done baking or a little soft?

This recipe is so easy and customizable. Delicious!

This was absolutely phenomenal!! Simply the best! Delicious and easy to make - thank you for sharing your recipe!

Delicious! Such a great recipe. A keeper for sure. 😀👋

Homemade Tigernut Granola (Nut Free, Gluten Free, Keto, Paleo, Vegan, Dairy Free &amp; Oil Free) – A crunchy nut free granola cereal made with tigernuts and a mix of seeds like pumpkin, chia and hemp seeds. This gluten free nut free grain free granola is delicious on its own or served with dairy free milk, yogurt, smoothie or ice cream. 

Gluten Free Nut Free Tigernut Granola (Grain Free, Oil Free, Keto, Vegan)

tigernuts ((chopped))

tigernuts ((sliced))

sunflower seeds (raw)

pumpkin seeds (raw)

golden flax seeds ((ground))

currants

cranberries (or raisins (soaked))

hemp seeds

coconut cream

sugar

tsp pink Himalayan salt

raspberries (crushed)

freeze dried bananas (crushed)

Take 1.3 cup of tigernuts and soak them in a bowl of water overnight.

Soak the dried black currants or any of your dried fruit in warm water for at least 30 minutes before use in the recipe. This will help remove dirt and any oil or sugar residue.

Prepare The Ingredients That Need Soaking

Once soaked discard the water, place the tigernuts in a food processor and pulse a few times until they resemble chopped nuts.

You can also thinly slice them with a knife if you prefer larger pieces.

Chop And Slice

Preheat oven to 300F. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.  

Into a large bowl toss chopped and sliced tigernuts, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, chia seeds, hemp seeds, flaxseed meal, dried black currants, coconut cream (room temperature) or oil, the sweetener (if you use any) and salt.

Use a spatula to stir and combine.

Spread your grain free nut free granola mixture evenly on the prepared baking tray. Spread the granola in a single thin layer or use two baking trays if needed.&nbsp;

Assemble The Gluten Free Nut Free Grain Free Granola

Bake for 40 minutes, stirring halfway through with a spatula. Your grain free granola is ready when is slightly golden brown and crisp.

Bake The Granola

Cool down for 15 minutes on the tray then stir in the dried freeze fruits (I used raspberries and bananas).

Final Mix-ins

Transfer your cool granola into a glass jar.  Store up to 3-4 weeks. This recipe makes about 4-5 cups of granola. 

Store The Granola
