This delicious healthy granola is always my favorite kind of granola, naturally sweetened with honey or maple syrup. It makes a great healthy breakfast with milk, yoghurt or top on your smoothies bowl, or snack at any time of your day.
Granola is a popular breakfast food and snack made from rolled oats, nuts, seeds, and sweeteners such as honey or maple syrup, all of which are baked until crisp. It often includes dried fruits and can be enjoyed in various ways, such as with yogurt, milk, or eaten as a snack on its own. Granola is known for its crunchy texture and can be customized with a wide range of ingredients to suit different tastes and dietary preferences. The mixture is baked at a low temperature until it's crisp and golden brown. This process creates those delicious clusters of granola we all love.
Here's a breakdown of a typical Granola:
- Base: Oats are the heart of granola. Typically, rolled oats are used, but other types like oat bran can be included too.
- Nuts & Seeds: These add protein, healthy fats, and texture. Almonds, walnuts, pecans, sunflower seeds, and chia seeds are popular choices.
- Sweetener: Honey and maple syrup are classic choices, but brown sugar or coconut sugar can also be used. Some granolas may use fruit purees for sweetness.
- Other Ingredients: Dried fruits like raisins, cranberries, or chopped dates add sweetness and chewy bits. Spices like cinnamon or nutmeg can be included for extra flavor.
