This is so great...why buy someone else's granola when you can bake up this tasty dish...and it is really easy to put together. I like chopped dates for the fruit, but raisins or dried cranberries would also be tasty!

This is my version of a granola recipe I saw on Sarah's Secrets one day. I did make a few changes to suit our taste, but the recipe is basically the same. This is wonderful eaten dry or with milk.

Tips for Making Cashew Almond Coconut Granola
  • Use a variety of nuts and seeds. This will give your granola a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include cashews, almonds, coconut, pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds.
  • Choose your sweetener carefully. Honey and maple syrup are both popular choices, but you can also use agave nectar, coconut sugar, or even brown sugar. If you're trying to reduce your sugar intake, you can use a sugar-free sweetener like stevia or monk fruit.
  • Don't overcook the granola. This will make it hard and crunchy. Cook it until it's golden brown and fragrant, then remove it from the oven and let it cool.
  • Add mix-ins after the granola has cooled. This will prevent them from burning. Some good options include dried fruit, chocolate chips, or nuts.
  • Store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature. It will keep for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion

Cashew almond coconut granola is a delicious and healthy snack or breakfast option. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little planning, you can enjoy this tasty granola all week long.
