Why This Recipe Is So Enjoyable

This granola is packed with wholesome ingredients that give you lasting energy throughout the day. It’s crunchy, satisfying, and easy to customize with your favorite nuts and seeds. Plus, it’s a great way to enjoy a healthy snack or breakfast without added sugars.

Cooking Hints

- Use old-fashioned rolled oats for the best texture.
- Stir the granola halfway through baking to ensure even browning.
- Let the granola cool completely to achieve maximum crunch.

Step 1

Gently heat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. In a large bowl, mix together the oats, amaranth, sunflower seeds, pecans, walnuts, almonds, flaxseed meal, and ground chia seeds until everything is well combined.

Step 2

In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the honey, maple syrup, coconut oil, brown sugar, butter, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt. Stir constantly as it comes to a boil, then keep stirring and cook for about a minute before taking it off the heat.

Step 3

Pour this warm syrup mixture over the oat and seed mix, stirring until it’s all nicely coated. Spread the granola evenly across your prepared baking sheets. Pop them in the oven and bake for around 20 minutes, giving the granola a good stir halfway through to toast it evenly.

Step 4

Once it’s golden and fragrant, take the granola out and let it cool for about five minutes. Transfer it to a big bowl, then toss in the raisins, cherries, and blueberries. Give everything a good mix, and you’re ready to enjoy!

How To Serve It Best

Enjoy this granola with yogurt and fresh fruit for a quick breakfast. It also makes a perfect topping for smoothie bowls or a crunchy snack on its own. Drizzle with honey or maple syrup for extra sweetness if desired.

Storage Guide

Store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature to keep it fresh and crunchy. It should stay good for up to two weeks. Avoid moisture to prevent it from becoming soggy.
