You guys it doesn’t get much easier than this.
This recipe is so ridiculously simple that I actually feel a bit silly making a whole entire blog post about it, but SO many of you have asked me for my go-to granola recipe that I just had to share! I love using this granola to top my smoothie bowls and overnight oats, but it also stores really well too so I’ll keep it in a sealed container to have on hand in my pantry anytime I need some! This granola can last up to two weeks, but I highly doubt it will even last you that long π
This recipe requires only three simple ingredients and chances are they are most likely items you already have sitting in your pantry. I also like to add a little cinnamon and vanilla extract as well just to sweeten things up, but this basic recipe is just rolled oats + coconut oil + maple syrup. Boom DONE. I’ll also throw in some nuts, seeds or cranberries every now and then just to switch things up, but feel free to make this recipe all your own and to your liking. I promise you literally couldn’t mess this up if you tried! Just make sure to stir the granola halfway through while it’s baking so that it cooks nice and evenly.
That’s it! Β This granola is PERFECT for all the fall recipes coming up and feel free to even throw a little pumpkin pie spice into the mix! Β Enjoy!

Would grapeseed oil work with this?
Absolutely! π
That you so much for sharing this recipe! I made it last night, and it is absolutely delicious.
Easiest recipe ever! I use honey instead of maple syrup and it works well. I have a lot of allergies so Iβve never been able to have store bought granola and this has Seriously but changed my food life. (Iβm currently eating it out of the container as I type, itβs that good!)
Ahhh!!! I cannot believe how good this is! I have had a hard time trying to make my own homemade granola for a while now. I have severe allergies so I cannot buy any pre-made granola and this recipe is seriously my go to. It only lasted 5 days because we couldn’t stop eating it.
Awsomeππ
Yum! This is 10x less complicated than other granola recipes I’ve tried. Will definitely be meal prepping this over the weekend to use for the upcoming week! Thanks for sharing!
This looks yummy and easy. However, I’m out of maple syrup right now. Can you substitute agave nectar? Thanks!
Definitely! Agave or even honey would work great π
I’m that person who can eat cups and cups of granola in a sitting! It’s soooo delicious. Love that this homemade recipe is super easy! I have some monkfruit-sweetened maple syrup that will decrease the sugar content immensely, so that’s another plus! Look forward to trying this out!
This looks like such a yummy snack! This will be my new “go to!”
Can you use olive oil in place of coconut oil?
Absolutely! π
