This granola roundup has been a long time coming! Homemade granola is something I prep super often because I love having it on hand. It’s the best snack for a quick breakfast! Plus, there are SO many different flavors you can create, like crunchy coconut, chunky chocolate, and gingerbread cookie, to name a few… :)

I couldn’t believe the number of homemade granola recipes on my site and am so excited for you to find one you love! Did I mention these are all gluten-free, too? There are plenty of vegan, grain-free, and paleo options depending on your dietary preferences. I promise granola is super simple to make too, the hardest part is letting it cool to let the crunchy clusters form, but it’s 100% worth it :)

Tips for the best granola

• It’s easy to substitute granola, so feel free to swap in your favorite nuts and seeds for any called for in the recipe. As long as the ratio stays similar, your granola will still work out!
• Don’t cook granola at too high a temperature. The key to a good granola is cooking it low and slow, the edges will burn while the center isn’t fully dried out yet. You may be tempted to speed things up by baking for less time at a lower temperature, but try to resist!
• If you want big granola clusters, try not to stir the granola too much while it’s cooking, and once it comes out of the oven, let it cool completely before mixing it up so that the granola clusters have time to form.
• If you want to add dried fruit, don’t add it until after the granola is baked; otherwise, it will get very hard.
