    Grain-Free Granola

    This Grain-Free Granola recipe comes together in one bowl and bakes for less than 30 minutes in the oven. It's crunchy, nutty and naturally sweetened with maple syrup. I love to add it to dairy-free yogurt for when I'm in a hurry in the morning or to munch on all by itself!

    This is one of my favorite recipes to make and have on hand at all times. Sometimes I'll make a double batch and stick a full large mason jar in my car for snacking emergencies. I like being able to offer my kids a healthy snack rather than being unprepared and buying a mediocre snack at the grocery store.

    A couple notes about Grain-Free Granola:

    Let's talk about substituting different nuts and seeds:

    One great thing about this granola is how versatile you can be with the ingredients. Substituting different nuts and seeds to customize it to your liking is super easy. I typically have an assortment of nuts and seeds in my pantry, but once in a while I will run out of pumpkin seeds or cashews. If that happens, I'll use walnuts or pecans instead. The flavor changes slightly but it still tastes delicious!

      I love the grain free granola! I always have a batch made up and on hand. One of my favorite ways to eat it is as a topping on my sweet potato brownies. Thanks Laura.
