Ingredients
Units
- 2 cups oats (I use gluten-free)
- 1/2 cup peanuts
- 3 tbsp chia seeds
- 1/3 cup peanut butter
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tsp vanilla
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 275 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, mix the oats, peanuts, and chia seeds together.
- In a separate bowl, mix the peanut butter, honey and vanilla extract together.
- Pour the peanut butter mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients and mix until incorporated. (it’s easiest to mix with your hands!)
- Pour the granola onto the baking sheet and spread it evenly. Press down with a spatula.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, gently mixing the granola halfway through.
- Let cool completely then break into clusters.
Notes
- Press the granola firmly into the pan before baking for big clusters.
- Use runny peanut butter for easier mixing.
- If your peanut butter is unsalted, add a pinch of salt.
- Increase maple syrup to ⅓ cup if you prefer sweeter granola.
- Let it cool completely before breaking apart so it crisps up nicely.
