Hey i tried your recipe. Hands down the best recipe for granola. My son absolutely loved it. Thank you so much. I didn’t have pecans and maple syrup so i substituted with coconut shavings, almonds and honey. Definitely will make a big batch again. Thanks once again

This is by far the best granola I’ve ever had. I have made it a few times now for my family. I make a batch with the pecans,coconut and pumpkin seeds for me and my husband… and a batch of just the coconut with no nuts for the kids! They love it. I’m just curious tho..would it be considered a healthy granola (or is it considered high in sugar)? Thanks so much!

I am so excited to make the homemade granola but the only problem is that i only have instant cooking oats. Will that help?

Can Old Fashioned Oats be used in place of rolled oats?

Hi Gemma,
I am a newbie to your site. Bumped into it accidentally through Youtube. Absolutely loving the outcome! I am about to try your granola. Is coconut an absolute must in this recipe? Is their a substitute?

TIA

Very good recipe. Received lots of compliments from friend and family. I had doubt’s about the dried coconut in this recipe, but this ingredient is necessary to bring the flavour to the next level. A must try recipe. Will be trying the granola bar recipe very soon. Thank you Emma.

I’ve made this recipe several times. Made it again this morning to have with my yogurt. Really good. Will say though that I turn my granola every 7 mins until done. I’m usually done in about 30 mins. Otherwise the granola will start to burn. Just eye it along the way.

Hi Gemma,

I love this recipe so much. I have made this many times for my family. My father was to request to made 1 version that, without any sugar/ honey/Swerve. can I just remove the Brown sugar & honey from this recipe?

How can I make it for myself low fat and low sugar and without coconut? I am on a diet.
