Delicious Olive Oil Granola Recipe for a Healthy Breakfast

Ingredients

Servings:
9
  • 3 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup nuts (almonds or walnuts) (chopped)
  • 1 cup seeds (pumpkin or sunflower)
  • 1 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 cup olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 cup dried fruit (raisins or cranberries)
  • 1 cup coconut flakes (unsweetened)

Instructions

8 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Ensure the oven is fully heated for even cooking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, chopped nuts, seeds, salt, and cinnamon.

    Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the olive oil, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract.

    Ensure the mixture is well blended before combining.
  4. Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients and stir until everything is evenly coated.

    Use a spatula for thorough mixing.
  5. Spread on Baking Sheet

    Spread the granola mixture evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

    Make sure it's in a single layer for even baking.
  6. Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through.

    Watch closely to avoid burning.
  7. Cool and Add Dried Fruit

    Remove from the oven and let it cool completely, then stir in the dried fruit and coconut flakes.

    Cooling helps granola clump together.
  8. Store

    Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.

    Use glass jars for freshness.
