Super Easy Homemade Granola

July 16, 2022 by not your average mom 2 Comments

If you’re looking for an easy granola recipe guaranteed to be a hit with everyone, you’re in the right place.

This is a super simple recipe with no “extras” because my kids like it plain, but you could add any extras you wanted – raisins, nuts, chocolate chips, etc. into it.

Sofa King Good Granola

This homemade granola is easy to make and your whole family will devour it.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups oats
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 8 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tsp vanilla

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400° F

  2. Line13x18 sheet pan with parchement paper or foil and spray with cooking spray

  4. Combine oats, cinnamon and salt in large bowl.

  5. Add melted honey/butter/sugar/vanilla into dry ingredients and mix well until everything is fully coated.

  6. Transfer mixture onto sheet pan and spread out evenly.

  7. Bake 10-15 minutes until light golden brown (more for crunchier- less for chewier)

  8. If you manage to have any of this left after 24 hours, store in an airtight container and hide it from your family so you can enjoy some for yourself.

The kids love to eat the granola plain, as is.

They also love it on yogurt and smoothies. Here’s how I served it with breakfast last week:

Now that you have the recipe, here are some things to consider.

These are so good for so many things – baking, roasting veggies and all kinds of protein… I use mine ALL THE TIME.

 

I got the silicon sheet pan liner I use ALL THE TIME from an Epicure online party.

You can grab one here.

I made the granola live on Facebook last week – you can watch that here !

Enjoy!
