This delicious vanilla almond oil-free granola is great for topping yogurt, as a plant-based, homemade cereal or just on its own for a perfectly healthy snack. It’s really easy to make as well as being refined sugar-free and gluten-free.
Granola is one of my favorites things to make and snack on. There are so many different variations, add ins and ways to make it. I love making my peanut butter cookie granola and this chunky granola cluster recipes, (which is so delicious with baked cinnamon apples).
This vanilla almond granola is oil-free, gluten-free and completely refined sugar-free. It works great as a smoothie bowl or yogurt topper but I love to double the recipe to have it as a homemade plant-based cereal for breakfast throughout the week. Just add it to a bowl with almond milk and some fruit.
Unlike all of the store bought cereals and granolas, this recipe is made with only whole foods. With ingredients like rolled oats, Daily Crunch Sprouted Almonds, almond butter and maple syrup, it’s a nutritious alternative that tastes just as good.
