Easy Strawberry Almond Granola Recipe

The title says it all! This Easy Strawberry Almond Granola Recipe is truly super easy and quick to make! It’s so much healthier, cleaner, and tastier when made at home than store bought. But seriously, what is there not to love about this granola when almonds and strawberries pair so well together! 😉

I am a big fan of granola and trust me, I know what I’m talking about when I say “tastiest”! Since I started making granola at home I cannot eat the store bought one anymore. 

The granola made at home is fresh, crunchy, full of aroma, and the addition of freeze-dried strawberries gives that sour tangy to the sweet baked rolled oats with almonds and flax seeds, makes it so scrumptious and irresistible you can just simply enjoy it as a snack! 😉

Strawberry Almond Granola Ingredients

Rolled Oats – I used organic rolled oats.

Almond Slivers – To keep almond slivers fresh I freeze entire bag. When needed just scoop as much as neede for the recipe.

Flax Seeds – I used organic flax seeds.

Coconut Oil – Organic virgin kind is the best, it makes the rolled oats a bit soft inside.

Brown Sugar – It adds flavor and a bit of sweetness.

Maple Syrup – I used organic maple syrup, you may use honey if you don’t like the syrup. It makes the granola crunchy after baking.

Sea Salt – Addition of salt in the recipe reduces the sweetness and boosts the flavor.

Pure Vanilla Extract – Give that tasty aroma to granola.

Freeze Dried Strawberries – I get them at Trader’s Joe’s (not sponsored), and you can find any kind of dried fruit at most natural grocery stores.

How to Make Strawberry Almond Granola

Preheat the oven to 325 F (163 C). Measure out rolled oats and flax seeds and place into a medium glass bowl. Set aside.

Combine coconut oil, brown sugar, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt into a small bowl. Place a small bowl over a water bath for all the ingredients to melt and incorporate. 

Pour liquefied syrup into a bowl with rolled oats and flax seeds. Mix well to combine. 

Transfer and evenly sprea coated granola with syrup onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 25 minutes at a preheated oven to 325 F (163 C). 

After its done baking, remove from the oven and let cool completely for the granola to crystalize. Finally, sprinkle freeze-dried strawberries, break cold crystalized granola to desired pieces and mix in dried strawberries.  

Enjoy as cereal or in yogurt with loads of fruit! 😀
