Making Oat-Free Granola At Home

Making Oat-Free Granola At Home

November 8, 2026


When I posted my homemade toasted granola recipe back in July of 2025, some of you asked for a healthier alternative to oatmeal, which is often the main component in store-bought granola brands. Since then, I have played around with a variety of different ingredient combinations and think I have finally created one you will truly enjoy! It has substance, texture and tastes waaaaaay better than anything you will ever find at the market. Plus it doesn't have unhealthy fats, preservatives or any of those other questionable additives.

As always, tweak my recipes to your heart's content, or add your favorite ingredients to the mix and make it even more robust!


👩‍🍳 My Oat-Free Granola Recipe


Ingredients

  • 8 cups organic puffed kamut
  • 1 cup organic buckwheat hot cereal
  • 2 1/2 cups organic raw pumpkin seeds
  • 3/4 cup sliced almonds
  • 1 cup organic coconut flakes
  • 1 cup brown sugar

  • 1 1/4 cups maple syrup
  • 3/4 cup unfiltered coconut oil
  • 1/3 cup clean filtered water
  • 1 T Redmonds salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325F (slow bake makes it caramelize better).
  2. Lightly grease (2) cookie sheets.
  3. In large bowl, combine first 6 ingredients - mix well.
  4. In another bowl, combine maple syrup, oil, water, salt - stir.
  5. Combine both mixtures together well and pour onto cookie sheets. Spread out evenly.
  6. Bake 25-30 minutes or until golden. Flip mixture midway through for even color. Keep an eye on, so it doesn't burn!
  7. Remove from oven and leave to cool completely.
  8. Transfer into air-tight glass containers. Fills almost 5 quart jars. Store in pantry. Good for up to 2 months.

This has become my absolute favorite. Let me know if you try it!
