I learned this recipe while working at a Bed and Breakfast in DC. This gluten-free granola from McCabe's is also one of the few oat-free options on the market. A low-carb and low-sugar pick, we loved the texture on this granola that was both hearty and delicious. Toss the oats, coconut, and almonds together in a large bowl.
Steps to make Granola:
- Preheat oven to 275° F or 135° C
- Mix oats, bran & flax in a large roasting pan.
- Whisk the "flavorings" together and then drizzle over the oat mixture. Stir until evenly moist.
- Bake for 1-1/2 hours – stirring every 15 minutes.
- After the third stirring, add the "nuts, seeds & fruits".
- Bake for an additional 15 minutes.
- Allow to cool completely. Store in an airtight container.
- NOTE: I have experimented with the balance and quantities of the fats and sugars. As I reduced the fat, the texture went from crunchy to chewy. I did not have success with less than 1/4 cup of fat. I have also sometimes replaced the more processed sugars with unsweetened frozen juice concentrate.
- Serving size - 1/4 cup
A low-carb and low-sugar pick, we loved the texture on this granola that was both hearty and delicious. Toss the oats, coconut, and almonds together in a large bowl. Whisk together the oil and honey in a small bowl. Arguably the hardest part of baking granola is knowing when the granola is done. Using a low oven temperature helps dry out the granola without over-baking it, but keep in mind that the granola won't be dry right out of the oven — it will dry as it cools, so take it out of the oven when it looks lightly toasted and smells like cooked honey.
