How about whole walnuts? Also, how about chocolate chips? would you have to add them after the granola chills (therefore the clusters are already formed)?
Can you make granola bars as Scott mentioned with this recipe? or will you have to add more honey?
Just wanted to say thanks for your site (and especially the corny, yet instructive, videos). My first visit. I had a recipe for granola but it didn’t use coconut. Your video and website helped me “get over it” about granola ingredients. I am excited to make some this “Presidents’ Day”. I can’t wait to check out more of your videos.
Can’t wait to try your granola.
Have been trying to find something as good as the homemade granola they serve at Casa Benevedes in Taos.
Great video. You guys are funny! Your granola looks yummy, too. I like to add apple juice to moisten it a little and cut out some of the fat. Also, sunflower and pumpkin seeds are good.
i’m excited to make granola!
PS:
ya’ll are cuuute.
I just have one question about the ingredients. Did you put the whole sunflower seed in there, hull and all? It looked like you did, but I didn’t know if you could also use just the actual kernel?
Looks like a great recipe that I want to try real soon.
Rob, we didn’t put whole, unhulled sunflower seeds in the granola, we used the hulled ones. I like my granola to be full of fiber, but that might be taking it too far.
It took me, like, 3 hours to pick enough sesame seeds off a dozen or more bags of hamburger buns just to make this recipe. Totally not worth it! Now nobody will use the buns because “they look like mice nibbled them”. Now what am I supposed to do with a freezer full of organic salmon burgers??? NOW you tell us to use “hulled” sunflower seeds! No wonder people were…nevermind!
Marisa you are one hot granola maker!
Wonderful versatile recipe – thanks
Very tastey and keeps you “regular”
Have made two lots now and it’s certainly going to be a family favourite.
Will be following your blog from now on from Barcelona (sunny Spain).
Dorothy, so glad to hear you like the granola recipe. It really is quite versatile and delicious. One good adaptation is to sub maple syrup for the honey.
I have been looking for a recipe for granola for quite awhile. This looks very easy and yummy. Can’t wait to try it!!!
I made this tonight and I’m LOVIN’ it, girlfriend!! I actually made a big double batch and I’ve added so much junk to it that it’s unbelievable! Dried apples, apricots, craisins, raisins, pineapple, and once it really cools down, I’m planning to add just a little bit of M&M’s and a few butterscotch chips. When I added the nuts to the granola, I added about 6 different types of nuts, just measured them out in the cup to add up to the proper amount. As I’ve been turning it in the oven, I keep sneaking a taste. Thanks so much for sharing this! I’m going to have enough granola for the next six months, maybe… my 24 year old son will probably be hauling this to work with him everyday. I just hope I can swipe a few bags for myself. I bought little personal sized ziploc bags to fill with the granola. Thank you!!!
I just made this granola and it is fabulous. I put the coconut in the receipe and I used pecans and walnuts for the nuts instead of almonds and penuts also I used sunflower seeds without the shells. I put crasins and raisins in al well. I am impressed at how good this tastes. Thanks for sharing this recipe.!
Granloa was great! I used toasted flax seeds instead of peanuts, and added a few chopped pecans, a 1/2 tsp of cinnamon, 1/4 tsp of nutmeg and 1 tps of good vanilla.. it is like having yogurt with oatmeal cookies minus all the guilt!
I just finished watching your video (which was very entertaining).
I can’t wait to make this recipe myself! I was wondering what the self life of homemade granola is? Please let me know.
I love the granola… So easy to make. I make it for my grandchildren who are in college. They love it.
Thanks for the recipe. You guys were awesome to watch.
