Nutty Peanut Butter Granola (Gluten free and dairy free)
My nutty granola combines gluten free oats with nuts, peanut butter, honey, cinnamon and raisins. It comes together in lovely clusters and you will never need to buy granola again! If you do make this recipe I’d love to see, don’t forget to tag me in your photos over on social media.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use different nuts?
Yes you can use whichever nuts you have in the house. I used almonds and walnuts but any chopped nuts would work.
Do I need to use peanut butter?
Yes, this is what gives it the lovely nutty flavour but you could sub this out for a different nut butter such as almond butter.
Can I make this vegan?
Yes, the only non vegan ingredient used in this recipe is honey but this can be subbed for maple syrup or agave syrup to make the granola vegan.
How long will this granola last?
Store in an airtight container for up to 3 weeks.
Nutty Granola
Ingredients
- 150 g gluten free oats
- 120 g roughly chopped nuts (I used walnuts & almonds but any nuts would work)
- 75 g melted coconut oil
- 100 g honey (or maple syrup)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 75 g smooth runny peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional – can add more or less depending on preference)
- 60 g raisins
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 160C and line a large baking tray with baking paper. To a large bowl add your oats and chopped nuts. Stir to combine.
- In a separate bowl add your melted coconut oil, honey, vanilla extract, peanut butter and cinnamon. Mix well so everything is combined and then pour on top of the oat mixture. Mix really well so that all of the oats and nuts are coated in the wet ingredients.
- Transfer your mixture to your lined baking tray, making sure to spread the mixture out into a thin layer (if you have too much mixture or a small baking tray use 2 trays). Press the mixture tightly, this is what will create the clusters.
- Bake in the oven for around 20-25 minutes, you may need to cover with foil to prevent it from burning. Remove from the oven and leave to cool completely before breaking into clusters. Stir through your raisins.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 3 weeks.
