The Granola Bible

🥣 DIY Granola Just Got a Glow-Up

Tired of the sad, dusty granola at the bottom of the health food aisle? Same, BB. So we’re taking matters (and oats) into our own hands. This base recipe is your crunchy canvas - golden, toasty and ready for whatever flavour mood you’re in. Wanna channel a caramel popcorn moment? Apple pie fantasy? Mocha queen energy? We've got options.

Plus, it’s a sneaky lil’ way to get more plant protein in your day... disguised as dessert. You’re welcome.

The Base Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups rolled oats

  • ½ cup walnuts or pecans (your call)

  • ¼ cup melted coconut oil

  • ¼ cup maple syrup or honey (maple if you’re keeping it vegan)

Method:

  1. Preheat that oven to 165°C and line a baking tray.

  2. In a big bowl, mix your oats, nuts and chosen flavour bits (keep scrolling).

  3. Add coconut oil and maple syrup. Stir it like you mean it.

  4. Spread it out evenly on your tray. Bake for 25-30 mins until golden - give it a stir at the 15-minute mark for that perfect crunch.

  5. Let it cool for 15-20 mins to crisp up fully. Yes, patience is a virtue (and a crunchy reward).

FAQ - THE GRANOLA BIBLE

  • You can, BB, but rolled oats are the MVP here. They give that chunky, crunchy texture we all want in a granola. Quick oats might leave you with a sad, soggy situation. We vote: stay classic.

  • Once your granola’s cooled, pop it into an airtight jar or container and store in a cool, dry place. It’ll stay fresh for up to 2 weeks... if you can resist eating it all before then 👀

  • Yep! Melted vegan butter or olive oil can work, but coconut oil brings that subtle sweetness and crisp factor. Choose your adventure, just keep the ratio the same.

  • Totally! Swap the nuts for seeds like pumpkin or sunflower, and pick flavours that don’t require nutty add-ins. We’re all about options for every belly.
