You are searching for a refined sugar- and oil-free granola recipe that does not have an overwhelming list of ingredients? Then stop right there! This easy and tasty cinnamon crunch granola is much better (and healthier) than all those boxed varieties from the store.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n I love crunchy granola! Small clusters made of oats and nuts, swimming in a bowl of oat or almond milk - and then you take the first bite! Yum! Simply delicious! I am hoping that I am not the only one who has such strong feelings for a good granola?! <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n One thing that really bothers me about store-bought granola, though, is that long list of ingredients. It's unbelievable what is put in these boxes! Sugar, glucose syrup and palm oil are the most harmless ingredients. I mean, who needs whey powder in granola? Luckily, there are much healthier brands on the market nowadays but unfortunately those are usually more expensive. So why not make it yourself?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Great news: It's pretty simple to make homemade granola! The base is oats and nuts, as usual. They're going to give us that crunchy texture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Granola has to be sweet so let's go with some maple syrup. A far better alternative to white sugar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Most of the granola recipes that I've found on the internet contain oil. Since I try to avoid oil as much as I can, I needed another source of (good) fats. Nut butter to the rescue! And as there are plenty of nut butter types to choose from, this recipe is pretty versatile. Great, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n And that's pretty much it! Just a bit of cinnamon and a pinch of salt and we are done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The recipe makes about 3-4 servings - but be careful about who you are serving it to as it might end up being only 1 or 2 servings (I am talking out of experience!). <\/p>\n\n\n\n I hope you\u2019ll give this sugar-free and oil-free cinnamon crunch granola a try.
