How to Make Healthy Vegan Granola

I like to mix the ingredients in the baking dish. It makes this granola extra easy and a one pan dish! I even let it crisp up in the same baking dish! So easy and clean up friendly.

How to Make Healthy Granola:

1. Preheat the oven to 350°.
2. In a 9 x 9 casserole dish, combine all the granola ingredients, and mix well.
3. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, stirring twice, until golden brown.
4. Remove from the oven and leave uncovered on the countertop overnight to crisp up. Then store in a cool dry place for up to a week.

This healthy vegan granola makes the perfect breakfast, I love to serve it with almond milk as cereal. But over cashew yogurt is great too. And nibbled on as a dry snack is also amazing!

I've supplied several add-ins as well, so unless noted, just add them in with the other ingredients and bake together.

Special Tip: You can make this granola gluten-free by getting gluten-free oats.
