The Easiest Homemade Granola Recipe

March 5, 2020 By //  by Reed

I’ve been buying granola from the store for years. And years. And years. My last recollection of homemade granola is from a very young age, when my dad would make it. I really haven’t tasted it since then. The other day I decided that homemade granola sounded good, so I whipped up a recipe and it turned out to be DELICIOUS.

I was in the middle of a really busy day of coaching and seriously needed a mental break, so I threw some things together and baked them. I was pleasantly surprised at how tasty my granola concoction turned out to be – here is what I came up with!

The beautiful thing about this recipe is that it is totally customizable (not to mention that it’s incredibly easy). The foundation of oats pairs well with any sort of mix-ins your heart desires OR you could do what I did and just see what’s in your cupboard 😉 On this go-around I added a cranberry cashew trail mix, some hemp seeds and a few coconut flakes to snazz things up! Get creative with it!

One of the craziest things about homemade granola is realizing how budget-friendly it is – boujee granolas are at a premium these days but girllllll you’ve got the power to make your own at home, customized to just how you like it!
