I poured some Almond Milk in a bowl with this Granola and it was AMAZZZING! 🙂
Is this supposed to be so wet?!
The only thing I did differently was replace half the maple syrup with honey, but it is very wet and mushy, not the right texture for granola.
I think there may be too much coconut oil in this recipe?
Hello Mari! 2/3 of a cup is right. My granola turned out really crunchy. Maybe next time try using maple syrup instead of honey? 🙂
Mine too!! I ended up leaving it in the oven for 20min one side and then 20min.. It still looked very wet so I broiled it . It actually worked but I also used honey instead syrup.. We ate it with warm almond milk !! Delishhh!
Hi Mariel. I’m not a big fan of dates. Would this recipe be successful if I just left them out?
Hi Lori! Yes, you can totally leave them out. However, I would suggest replacing them with your favorite dried fruit: cranberries, raisins, apricots, etc.
It’s a bit hard to tell. What’s a good measurement for serving? From the pictures, it looks to be 1/2 cup?
Hi Chris! That’s exactly right! 1/2 cup is what counts as 1 serving.
Hi, Thank you so much for this wonderful granola recipe. I cannot believe that something so tasty can be so good for me.
So one of my favorite things in the world to eat is granola but I’m VERY allergic to coconut. Can you recomend substitutes for the shredded coconut and coconut oil?
Hi Kristina. You can use more nuts (your favorite) or dried fruit to sub for the shredded coconut. As for the coconut oil, I am not sure if this can be subbed…maybe try using a bit of honey instead of the oil? Let me know what you end up doing!
This was delicious. I skipped the parchment and it worked fine. Added dried cherries and dried cranberries, omitted nothing. Kids and adults both loved it. Dates are a pain to chop so I may skip that next time. Otherwise couldn’t be easier. Needed about 10 more minutes in the oven, maybe for lack of parchment. Great recipe.
So glad to know you liked this recipe, Amanda! 🙂
This is awesome with chopped bacon, too!!
Oh wow, wouldn’t’ve thought of that one! Thanks for sharing.
