Clean Eating Stovetop Granola

January 21, 2014 28 Comments

Clean Eating Stovetop Granola - Clean+Delicious®

Scroll down to watch the video!

I love me some granola.

But as much as I love it, I very rarely find myself making it, simply because it takes some time.  I mean don’t get me wrong, I have made it and have even shared that recipe with you guys, but I don’t make it very often.

That is until I learned this little gem of an idea:  make it in smaller batches, on the stove top, in ten minutes.

Hello?!

Who has been hiding this brilliance from me?

This is the world’s easiest way to make granola.

And just like I mention in the video, you can really make this your own.  Add your favorite stir-ins, switch up the nuts, use whatever dried fruit you have, etc.  Simply put, granola is just not going to get any easier than this recipe.

I love sprinkling this granola on top of some organic whole milk yogurt or non-fat Greek yogurt.  (Yes – I see it.  The paradox.  I’m so done fighting it.  This is how I roll.)

If you want to get fancy, try these banana split breakfast bites (kids adore them).

Either way, if you give it a try, let me know.  I love hearing what you guys get excited about!

    Hi Dani,
    I got your email about the granola on the stove and i was quite excited to watch it, but unfortunately it won’t load at all, i tried YouTube and it;s the same. I read the comments of others viewers and found out, they too cannot watch it. So please do something about it to fix it up. By the way I must tell you that I love love all your videos and you have a great style, you make any recipes looks simple.God Bless you

    I just made this, and it is SO delicious 🙂 It’s about a million degrees outside right now, but one of my favorite snacks is sautéed cinnamon apples. I was looking for a quick granola recipe to sprinkle on top for some crunch and this was perfect! 🙂

      Good question! It should last a couple of weeks stored in a airtight container!

      It depends on if you prefer the flavor of toasted nuts. IF you want them toasted you will need to take the time to do that first. otherwise, you should be fine.

    I didn’t have any maple syrup so used honey instead. Still turned out really delicious so will definitely be making again. Thanks Dani!

    Hi Dani.. just came across your site absolutely love it… just wanted to know if I could substitute the coconut oil and coconut flakes with something else as I am allergic to coconut but really would love to make this granola.

      You can try butter or avocado oil. And then to stir in, use mix-in you like in your granola. Very flexible!

    Love this recipe Dani! I’ve been making it for years, each time I change up the fixings to include whatever is in my pantry. We love it, my husband asks for it when we run out. I recently discovered dried blueberries from Trader Joe’s and it’s soooooo good in this recipe!
