By Wafa — 100+ tested recipes
A crunchy, naturally sweetened homemade granola with honey, perfect for topping your yogurts or enjoying as a healthy snack.
Ingredients
- 200 g rolled oats
- 100 g honey
- 50 g butter or coconut oil
- 50 g brown sugar
- 50 g nuts (hazelnuts and almonds)
- 50 g mixed seeds
Instructions
- 1Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
- 2In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, nuts, and seeds.
- 3In a saucepan over low heat, melt the butter (or coconut oil) with the honey and brown sugar. Simmer for a few minutes until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- 4Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients and stir well until everything is evenly coated.
- 5Spread the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and press down firmly with the back of a spoon. Bake for about 15-20 minutes or until the edges begin to turn golden brown.
- 6Let it cool completely, then break the granola into large clusters. (It is crucial to wait until it is completely cold to achieve those crunchy clusters.)
Tips
- Pair it with Greek yogurt and fresh fruit for a balanced breakfast.
- Try acacia honey for a subtle sweetness or wildflower honey for a more floral taste.
- For high-quality granola, opt for organic, unpasteurized honey.

Frequently asked questions
Can I replace the honey in this recipe?
Honey plays a key role in this recipe, providing a specific flavor profile to the granola. If honey isn't to your taste, I suggest trying my peanut butter granola recipe, which is an excellent alternative.
How long can you store homemade granola?
Granola typically keeps for up to 2 weeks in an airtight container at room temperature.
Why am I not getting big clusters?
The key to getting big granola clusters is letting it cool completely after baking. If you try to handle it or break it into chunks while it is still hot or warm, it will tend to crumble easily into small pieces.
