The secret to perfect granola is large, crunchy clusters that pair perfectly with creamy yogurt. Instead of traditional honey or syrup, we'll use something much better to bind our flakes – nut butter with almond pieces. This combination not only guarantees an amazing taste but also provides a solid portion of healthy fats and energy for the entire morning.
The crunchy secret: ALMOND CRUNCHY by Good Noot
Traditional recipes require a good amount of fat and sugar for the flakes to clump into crispy clusters. We opted for a healthier and tastier solution – our star is Almond Crunchy by Good Noot. It's a thick, deep-flavored almond butter with crunchy pieces of perfectly roasted almonds. It perfectly coats oatmeal and seeds, and during baking, it creates a brilliant, nutty crust on them.
Ingredients for homemade granola (Serving for 2 people):
Crunchy base:
-
1 cup rolled oats (preferably thick-cut)
-
¼ cup of your favorite seeds (e.g., sunflower, pumpkin, flaxseed, or chia)
-
¼ cup of your favorite nuts (e.g., walnuts, hazelnuts, or cashews)
-
½ teaspoon cinnamon
-
5 tablespoons Almond Crunchy by Good Noot
To serve:
-
Thick natural yogurt (or skyr)
-
Favorite seasonal fruits (e.g., strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, or banana)
Preparation method step by step:
-
Mixing the ingredients: In a large bowl, place the rolled oats, your favorite seeds, and coarsely chopped nuts. Sprinkle cinnamon, and finally add 5 generous tablespoons of Almond Crunchy Good Noot. Mix everything thoroughly with a spoon or your hands, so that the cream precisely coats every dry ingredient and small clumps begin to form.
-
Preparing for baking: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Transfer the prepared oat-nut mixture onto it and spread it evenly in a thin layer.
-
Baking: Place the baking sheet in an oven preheated to 180°C (top-bottom heat) and bake for approximately 20 minutes.
Important tip: Every few minutes, stir the granola with a spatula so that the flakes brown evenly from the outside and inside, preventing them from burning.
-
Cooling (Key to crunchiness): After baking, remove the granola from the oven. It may still seem slightly soft, but don't panic! Leave it on the baking sheet to cool completely – that's when it hardens and becomes maximally crunchy.
-
Serving: Put your favorite natural yogurt into bowls, generously sprinkle with cooled nutty granola, and decorate with fresh fruits.
You can store a larger batch of granola in an airtight glass jar – it will stay fresh and crunchy for many days! Enjoy! 🥥🍓🌾
