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 πŸ˜‰

My favorite go-to granola recipe that is EASY to make and only requires three simple ingredients! Β The perfect basic recipe that you can make all your own!

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!

    Hey I made this recipe and was just wondering if I can store it in the fridge and how long would it last it there??

    1. Kelly says:

      Should last up to two weeks in the fridge! πŸ™‚

  4. Sherry Haney says:

    I made this and loved it. Finally, a healthy granola that I control the sugar and fat. This allowed me to add whatever dried or fresh fruit and nuts when I am ready to eat it.

    Thank you!

  5. Kay says:

    Absolutely fabulous! Thrilled to find it

  6. Jamie Hartman says:

    I made this today and it got way too brown before even 25 minutes. Still tastes good, but I will watch it closely next time and decrease the cooking time.

    I love this recipe. I sometimes use honey with maple syrup and I add vanilla raisins, craisins or dried apricots cut up and coconut. It’s a big hit. Thanks nks
