Nutty Fruit Free Granola Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 275F/135°C.
• In a large bowl toss oatmeal, coconut, nuts, and sunflower seeds together.
• In a separate bowl whisk together oil, honey, cinnamon, and vanilla.
• Pour liquid mixture over oats and stir until everything is coated.
• Pour mixture into a large rimmed baking sheet. I also cover the baking sheet with baking paper but it's not necessary if you have a non-stick pan.
• Bake for approximately 20-25 minutes, stirring once or twice. Keep an eye on it so it doesn't burn.
• Let it cool completely. Blend in cornflakes if using.
• Store in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine the oats and nuts in a large bowl. In a separate mixing bowl, combine the sugar, oil, vanilla, salt and 1/4 cup water. Pour the liquid mixture over the oat mixture and stir until combined. Pour onto two baking sheets and spread evenly. Bake until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes, stirring halfway through.
• Pour the cooked oat mixture into a bowl and stir in the raisins and cherries. Let cool. The granola will keep in an airtight container at room temperature in a cool, dry place for up to 3 weeks.

Steps:

• Position an oven rack at the bottom of the oven, and preheat to 325 degrees F.
• Whisk the maple syrup and oil together in a large bowl. Add the almonds, pecans, coconut, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, flaxseed and salt, and toss to coat.
• Spread the mixture out on a baking sheet, and bake for 20 minutes. Remove it from the oven, and scrape and toss the mixture around. Continue to bake until golden and still slightly sticky, 10 to 12 minutes more. Or, for a deeper, toasted version, bake until deeply golden (you may start to smell the toasted nuts), 13 to 15 minutes more. Let cool. (The granola can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Toss the rolled oats, spelt flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, canola oil, applesauce, maple syrup, dried apricots, pecans and ground flax seed together in a bowl, and mix well. Spread the granola mixture on the lined baking sheet.
• Bake for 20 minutes, stir the granola, then bake for another 15 minutes until dry. Cool completely before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Stir oats, almonds, coconut, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, pecans, and salt, together in a large bowl.
• Stir butter and honey together in a small saucepan over low heat until the butter is fully melted.
• Stir vanilla extract into the melted butter.
• Pour butter mixture over oats mixture; stir until evenly coated.
• Spread the mixture onto 2 large baking sheets into single, even layers.
• Bake in preheated oven 10 minutes. Remove from oven and gently turn the granola. Continue baking until golden brown, about 10 minutes more.
• Set granola aside to cool to room temperature; transfer to a large bowl.
• Gently fold cranberries into the granola.
