Put the olive oil in before the honey, then use the same measuring cup for the honey. It'll come out easier

[@kirarussom5780]

@wiseandgreen Depends on the person. They could be allergic. I personally prefer avacado or coconut oil, but to each their own

[@hertersarel]

Coconut oil is the way to go for me

[@gabriellekelly3462]

Great tip 👍

[@teacherwinabelle9312]

thats true

[@nelysvabska]

Or no oil at all. Oil is not healthy

[@CriaPat]

I made it exactly the same, just added some coconut. Amazing! My husband loved it too, we've been adding it to our yogurt in the morning. We even eat it just like that. Making it at home cost me about half the price of the store, with no additives added. I'm making it today again and taking some to my parents this afternoon.

[@khadijarahim7061]

That's awesome! How do you add the coconut? Before baking it?

[@davidgunderman6348]

I made 2 batches of this granola recipe already. Getting ready to make a third batch but was wondering if I were to change the olive oil to either avocado or coconut oil. I don’t like coconut (texture), but I like coconut water.

[@nixie-ej3ye]

Perfect recipe. Because I wanted less sugar. I used 1 tablespoon of honey. The tip is to make it moist so I used 1/2 cup of water. Perfect granola I had.

[@todoranamaria]

I made this and it turned out amazing. People are crazy haha, you don't taste the olive oil!! Thanks for the recipe!

[@danielaachury7095]

Those who think or wonder if you taste the olive oil it’s because they have never cooked in their life’s 🤣🤣

[@victorialopez781]

Some Olive oils you can taste. That being said all you have to do is swap it for another oil

[@HulaHK]

I think I am used to the taste or use a mild olive oil. I was totally looking for a recipe that didn’t require coconut oil so this works perfect!

[@vivaeuropa]

Keep in mind there is a 139g of sugar in a half of a cup of honey. That defeated the whole purpose of this being healthy in my opinion.

[@sonderhaven7399]

@@vivaeuropa ok but you’re not going to eat 139g in one serving, this would make at least 12 1/2 cup servings, which would be just over 11g of sugar per serving. If you just use it as a topping it would make 24 1/4 cup servings at around 6g of sugar per serving.

I add chopped Medjool dates instead of cranberries at the end because of the amount of added sugar in dried cranberries. Also added a little dried coconut chips.

How long will this store for? I'm guessing a good long while, but maybe the moisture from the oil and honey affects shelf life?

[@mcsushiiii]

Should the end product be dry? Mine’s kinda moist/sticky(used a lower proportion cause i only had 100g rolled oats)

Can we use normal cookin oil or it has to be olive oil. Also as dry fruits can we add dried apricots kiwi etc. At the same time u added the cranberries.
