    Nutty Coconut Homemade Granola

    Jump to Recipe
    Homemade granola brimming with almonds, pecans and coconut - SO good!

    It is official.  I am obsessed with homemade granola.  I have made at least two batches a month since I found this recipe for gingerbread granola.  I gave mason jars of homemade granola for gifts at Christmas.  If I don't tuck it away in the pantry quick enough, the boys will devour it in a day.  I love to sprinkle it on Greek yogurt and fruit or just eat it in a bowl with almond milk.  And just wait until it bakes and your house smells absolutely amazing!

    Homemade granola brimming with almonds, pecans and coconut - SO good!

    Isn't it gorgeous?  Toasted and perfectly crunchy, this homemade granola starts with oats and then gets hearty additions of sliced almonds, pecans and coconut.  Then, it is tossed in olive oil and maple syrup, dusted generously with spices and a pinch of salt and baked until crispy and fragrant.

    You can make a batch of this from start to finish in about 20 minutes.  Easy peasy for homemade granola, right?  Keep an eye on the granola as it gets close to the 13 minute mark.  It is easy for any little bits around the edges to get over done.  And that would be a tragedy.  Because every.single.bite. of this gorgeous granola is delicious!

    After the homemade granola is cooled, you can also add in raisins, banana chips, dried cranberries (any dried fruit, really) or even mini chocolate chips!  How delicious would that be over vanilla ice cream or my Homemade Coconut Pudding???!  And if you don't like coconut or a certain type of nut, just increase the amount of your favorites for your own granola blend.

      I cannot wait to try this! Ingredients on the shopping list. I have olive oil - but I think I'll try it with coconut oil instead. Why not!? #yum
