If you don't want to use your oven, just toast your oats, coconut, seeds and nuts in a dry frying pan on the stove. Toast till golden brown and then toss in your melted honey/syrup and oil. Done! You might not get clusters, but it's still tastes delish and is super easy!

[@aisha6577]

Thank you for this! They never turn out the way I want in the oven!

[@Chrissy4281]

You have definitely inspired me to make granola at home; your recipes and tips are appreciated. I always love customizing flavors with banana, nut butters, pumpkin and coconut. Two tips I’ve learned along the way have also been to make sure the nuts you’re using while baking are raw and if they aren’t just add them after your granola is done to prevent them from burning. The second tip I learned was to flatten the granola out together on the baking sheet in like one big mass, bake for half the cook time then when it’s time to turn you will have the extra chunky clumps that you can break apart however you desire. This is the sure fire method I’ve tried to ensure big clusters and I LOVE a clustery granola 🤗

Love your channel. I’ve been vegan for about 3 months, it’s done wonders for my diabetes, and my weight. I’ve had to test different foods but overall my numbers are controllable by what I eat , rather than meds I was told I had to have (in my situation only). I hope to build up a menu that I can go to without too much fuss. Thanks for your recipes, very helpful to me 👍

[@SamElle]

Yesss I love making my own granola to control the amount of sugar in it!

[@tayleshiablake466]

Girl, that is so true👍

[@homeh5463]

Same!! I needs to make granola at 3 times in a month 😁😀😄. I like to have yogurts , fruit and granola parfaits EVERY day 😚🙆.

[@suryamiranda6925]

I'm a beekeeper and I would really suggest not using honey for this as when you warm it up it losed pretty much all it's beneficial properties therefore it's better just to use another weetener or sugar and save honey for raw usage

[@tallycat8265]

Thank you! It drives me crazy when I see people baking honey! No, No!

[@angelicatv6231]

Right! I use sugar syrup

[@bridgetteurbano1440]

This video came out at the perfect time! I literally just wanted to make granola for the first time and saw your video. Already a subscriber of yours so I was excited to find a video from you.

[@inesgouveia426]

Great video! I had left over coconut from making coconut milk at home and didn't know what to do with it then I tought about adding it to granola and it worked perfectly! Can't wait to try it tomorrow for breakfast! I added quinoa and barley to the oatmeal for extra nutrients and skipped the sugar

[@PaulLeMay3218]

Great video. Thank you for sharing. The recipe I have used for a while is 5 cups large flake oats, 3 ripe bananas, 1/4 cup date paste (I make my own date paste), 1/2tsp salt. Sometimes I add nuts and or seeds. Always have dried fruit (raisins, cranberries etc) and sometimes a finely chopped apple or pear. Bake at 200 degrees for one hour rotating and stirring at the 30 minute mark. Then turn off oven rotate and stir again and let sit for another 30 minutes then take out and let completely cool before storing. 👍🇨🇦

[@homeh5463]

How do you know my recipe 😁cause 95%of those ingredients i use to make my version of granola. Also I also like to add PB, coconut oil 1tbs, nuts and seeds. 😊

[@keepupwithliv]

I love making my own granola!

[@peeano9760]

If we don’t have rolled oats will quick oats work?

[@hannahmayo6582]

@@peeano9760 i’ve used them before with homemade granola bars and they turned out great, so I think that would work with this!

[@brendag127]

Fantastic! I made it. I smelled it before I put it in the oven and it smelled like heaven and everything good in the world!

[@brendag127]

I just to remember that it is baking. So I don't dump the rest of a bag of nuts in there. It needs to be measured. I am tempted to try it without baking it.

[@ashlynnrollene9615]

I was trying to find a recipe that I liked, but none of them had the ingredients that I would want and was just trying to find out the basics on how to make my own granola. I came across this video and now I can make it how I want it. Thank you for this very helpful video, job well done!

[@deborahbeardsley]

Was looking for the written down ingredients to accompany this video, but don't see it. Amy I missing something?

[@SuzetteG]

YES!! I am about to make my first ever batch of homemade granola (yes, I am late to the game), this video is perfect timing!! Thank you mucho!!

[@nnennaudeh9536]

Naa, you're still on time by on own standards.

[@howdoyoudo8417]

I made granola using this formula... Very good!

[@brandillysmom]

I just stumbled upon your channel shortly after I put two different batches of granola in their containers. I’m pretty happy with them but I can always improve. I look forward to watching this video.

[@1024specialkay]

I keep telling myself to make my own granola but never tried! This video came at the perfect time, I will definitely come back to this video :)

[@catarinapriolo9476]

So grateful for the peanut butter for clusters tip!!!! I have a really great recipe for granola from my boyfriends mom that’s pretty similar to yours but it kinda falls apart. That tip got me to subscribe haha looking forward to learning more tips from you! 💖

[@karengraves3900]

Love this and the "101" ideas!!

[@judyjackson2260]

Hemp hearts great addition. And craisins from Dollar Tree.

[@work2gather]

I am looking for a granola recipe to try... lost my old one. Went ahead and downloaded your meal prep guide. Hope it's good for my plant-based goals. :-) Next I am trying to find a quinoa granola recipe to try... probably on your site somewhere. I thought it would be with real uncooked quinoa, but probably is the flakes you mentioned. I have see raw quinoa in other recipes so I am trying to discover how it is done. :-)

[@DanielSmith-ix9vg]

Thank you, love the formula approach! Liked and subbed.

[@mimzers1]

The best granola recipe!!!

[@Mr.Steve-O]

Looks great, I am really trying to go as sugar-free as possible so I use peanut butter, coconut oil, and a small amount of honey. All heated together with 2 tablespoons of vanilla. I also like adding chia seeds and ground flax as well. 100's of ways to make granola but love your base as a starting point.

[@c.k.1958]

Just tried to make this can't wait to try it 💐🌸😊

[@allison.e]

Thoughts on other mix-ins, like dried fruit, chocolate chips, coconut? At what stage do you add those? Thanks!

[@rayacallea7931]

At the end so it doesn’t cook :)

[@gretageorgieva2102]

Thank you for this recipe. I just make it and it is awesome, the formula is really good.

[@carynbrock4667]

Hi Alyssa! I love your channel but I've noticed that the last few videos have had great intro music but then when you're speaking, the volume is SO LOW and I have to turn the volume way up so I can hear you. Just wanted to give you that feedback!!

[@Nishi-kg4nq]

I will definitely try this but I am fan of chocolate flavour, so I ended up trying true elements dark chocolate granola . It has lot of nuts and seeds which are healthy and tasty and chocolately!

[@judyjackson2260]

Or you probably could add cocoa to the peanut butter or dark chocolate chips melted.

[@DadsDishes]

Granola is awesome, I agree. PS if you add a line in your timestamp list at the beginning for '0:00 - start', then visible tick marks will show up in the time bar, pretty cool trick!

Thanks for the tips! I tried your pumpkin recipe but the granola did not really cluster tgt. Any tips to make them more ‘clustered tgt’?

[@charlenewagoner9523]

[@1207sed]

How would I add dried fruit to your formula? I usually have dried blueberries and dried banana chips, etc.. sometimes papaya… Thank you!

Hi Alissa, i like very much your recipes and your channel. But i can't eat a lot ingredients for leaky gut and food intolerances. I 've forbidden gluten, oat, soja, corn, dairy products, sugar and sirups.... I can buckwheat, rice, millet, amaranth, quinua, vegetables, legumes, nuts, fruits some fish (less mercury), eggs and country chicken. I hope if you could help me with some recipes vegan or vegetarian... With this ingredients. I love your granolas, overnight, the cakes, but i'm a little sad when the doctor said me my "new diet". But i think is provisional(if i get better probably i 'll can introduce more nourishment). Sorry for all and for my english, i' m spanish. My Best wishes from Sant Esteve Sesrovires (Barcelona, the town that was born La Rosalía the singer). Thanks a lot😘

Can you use dates or peanut butter and coconut oil to mix your granola?

Are there any other oils I can use instead of coconut oil?

U could prob use butter and/or other veg oils such as grape ( but not a low quality that u might use for frying cause itll taste like the oil u use)

What would this be like without any liquid sweetener?

[@chuckm1961]

Less sweet.

[@kristinajohnson7334]

chuckm1961 😂😂😂 really!? Lol. I just meant would it still work? Would it still harden up and be crunchy?

[@zeynep2006al]

@@kristinajohnson7334 yes of course!but you may want to add some more peanut butter or whatever you want to balance the wet-dry ratio and get more clusters cuz I’ve once made granola with a little less wet ingredients than I used to add and didn’t get as much clusters but if you don’t want more clusters then it doesn’t matter

Does it need to be oats bc i have porridge oats

[@dharinisri90]

Can I add apple sauce instead of mashed banana???

How about using fresh fruits instead of dried fruit?

Why not cut apple small pieces and fry in small amount of butter or coconut oil?
