Easy Vegan Granola Recipe
We are constantly looking for yummy, good-for-you snacks. Our family recently discovered that we all really love granola! I mean, what’s not to love? Oats, nuts, dried fruits, maple syrup, all baked until it’s toasted and golden brown. Drooling yet? While store-bought granola is good, there is nothing quite like homemade granola. I’m excited to share this vegan granola recipe that is not only delicious, but so easy to make!
A Versatile Snack
Granola makes a great breakfast or snack and is great on yogurt, smoothie bowls, with fruit, on ice cream, with almond milk or even on its own! Since we made our first batch this week, we have been trying it in every way we can think of. It’s interesting to see how we all eat it differently. My 12-year-old prefers to eat it straight out of a bowl, on its own. My 8-year-old eats it like cereal with some almond milk. My 5-year-old eats it with strawberries, for breakfast. My husband loves it on top of dairy free yogurt with berries. I personally love it on smoothie bowls (which by the way is the next recipe I will be sharing this week, so stay tuned!) I love that we can make a big batch and enjoy it in so many different ways!
You can add raisins or other dried fruits, brown sugar, different types of nuts (almonds or walnuts maybe)… the possibilities are endless. We’ve even thrown some in a little container to take with us. It’s a great on the go snack! The best part is, it only takes 5 minutes to prep with my easy-read measuring cup set, small mix ‘n scraper, stainless steel whisk and my other awesome new Pampered Chef kitchen tools!
What would you put in your granola? Comment below and let us know!

We’ve been making granola for years and I always enjoy trying a new recipe. I love granola but the usual one I get has so many raisins and nuts, I like that you can control how much you put in of each type if you make your own. Love the tropical taste also, this looks delicious. I love all their Grains.
I love granola and I always make one but I haven’t tried putting coconut. Will try this next time.
Oh this looks amazing, I love making homemade granola!
Love granola its always my favorite breakfast food. Thanks for sharing this recipe will surely gonna try this soon. Thanks
oh yes girl! give me all your yummy vegan recipes!
This looks like such an easy and tasty snack or topping for a smoothie or oatmeal. Great texture!
I love granola, but it is so expensive I rarely buy it. I don’t know why I never thought to make my own. This recipe looks easy enough.
Homemade granolas are the best because you can put anything that you want in it. I love it with pecans, walnuts, and cranberries.
Homemade granola is so much better than storebought. Most of it has honey in it, though, so it’s nice to see a vegan recipe!
I LOVE granola but have never made my own before! I need to try this recipe!
What a great and healthy recipe. I am going to try this out for our next road trip to have something tasty on hand that isn’t processed!
I always enjoy a good granola. That looks good. Would love to give it a try one day.
Awesome recipe! I love eating oats and granola. I tried one time to make my own granola and I had to eat it myself because nobody liked it. This recipe sounds delicious. I will try it soon.
Granola is one of my go to breakfast! So food and filling! Even better when it is vegan!
This is the best way to start a day! I love granola so I am sure I will love this one. This looks so delicious!
When I’m to have a tight day, I run for a heavier breakfast that usually includes some granola with yoghurts or a smoothie. And it sorts me! Your recipe is just as yummy!
I always have granola for breakfast, I just love it, thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the recipe. I want to make this for my son in law. He loves a good granola.
Nice suggestion. I am inspired. Today, I had overnight oatmeal with yogurt and chia seeds. Tomorrow, maybe I can have this. 🙂
I am going to save this!! I LOVE granola in my yogurt in the mornings.
I saw granola and immediately thought yea…o eat it all of the time. But then I saw a vegan recipe and got super excited! Awesome information
This recipe looks awesome. I love that it’s vegan. Granola is such a perfect, portable snack that I can take with me everywhere.
I love it! Such an easy and delicious recipe. I use granola basically every day – it’s much cheaper and healthier to DIY following your recipe!
Your granola looks delicious and the recipe looks so easy it makes sense to make it at home! This would be perfect for breakfast or over some fresh seasonal fruit.
I’ve made homemade granola a few times and I always seem to do something wrong. It always comes out a bit tasting burnt? I will have to try agian I think.
I am a huge fan of homemade granola, but I’ve never made it with coconut. I pinned your recipe to make this weekend! Thanks so much.
Great recipe! After eliminating meat from my diet I make a lot of my dishes, granola being one of them 🙂
Seriously simple and delicious looking recipe! This would be a great idea to share with some of my other vegan friends. Yum!
I love granola and forget how easy it is to make. I think I will be making this tomorrow.
This is a great recipe. However, I have never try to make them. We always buy our granola cereal, and we love to eat it with berries and yogurt as well as your husband. This is our preferences, and we love that way. Nevertheless, there are always different ideas to try something new.
This is making my mouth water! I need to try this. Glad I saw it before heading to the supermarket!
shredded coconut sounds so good added to granola! Need to try this
This sounds delicious, I love to make my own granola with dry fruits and nuts
I love the idea of making my own. My boys love granola so I will be trying this soon. This will also make a great school snack for my oldest some. Thank you for sharing
i just started making overnight oats again and realized that this version would be an interesting idea to try! im a huge granola fan but never thought to try and make it vegan for a few friends of mine who are! cant wait to try it!

I still haven’t tried to make overnight oats, but I would love to!
Pecans are my favorite nuts so I have to try your vegan granola recipe. It looks so scrumptious! I love a good granola recipe and this one looks amazing.
Making granola is simple and I don’t understand why more people don’t make their own. I must like this granola because I see I commented a year ago. We do love our granola.
Nothing better than a granola breakfast always, simple fast and scrumptious at the same time and this looks great.
It does not really fit in my taste, I admit it, but I think it could still be a healthy idea for breakfast or snack!
This sounds like just a wonderful granola recipe, and a great breakfast recipe to have on hand! Delicious!
I love granola but don’t buy it often because store-bought granola contains a lot of sugar. This recipe looks amazing and healthy!
Granola is a healthy option. We eat lots of granola bars especially when travelling. This is a good homemade recipe that hopefully, we should be able to make.
I’m always looking for healthier options too. This is the perfect healthy snack.
Been making some of this before and this is a great reminder for me to reconsider making granola snacks again. We’ll see if this will be my very first recipe to try after a long time.
I love granola and my kids love granola. I love the idea of making it at home and in a healthier way with less sugar in it.
what a concidence! I was just asking my friend where I could buy just granola because I wanted to have it over plain greek yogurt. I never thought of making it myself! love it.
My granddaughter is allergic to milk, so I am always on the lookout for good vegan recipes to try. This granola sounds like a great breakfast.
I have to admit I do love granola – it is such a good way to start the morning, but I have never thought about putting my own together. I am definitely going to have to give this a try!
This would be perfect for my brother. He loves granola and almost always has some with him in the car, at work and at home.
This seems like a great granola recipe! My kids like to put granola on their yogurt and it is also a quick and simple snack to grab. I like that it it healthy but still fills them up !
I love making homemade granola. It’s one of those snacks that are always better when made at home.
Making granola is something I have been done nag for over 36 years. Always nice to see similar recipes.
My friend is always saying that there’s nothing like homemade granola (hers really is the best) but I’ve yet to make some for myself yet. Maybe I’ll finally try it out this weekend!
I think this sounds so good. I love granola. Are other granolas made with animal products? I can’t wait to give this a try.

A lot of them are made with honey, which isn’t vegan.
This is something I am willing to try because buying granola in the grocery is a bit expensive. Similarly, adding fiber to one’s food will definitely make us healthier beings!
It’s a must try especially since it’s granola and you can basically put it on everything, smoothie bowls, overnight oats, or as a snack on its own. I love how easy it is to put together!
I love granola anyway you can give it to me. This looks absolutely amazing and I will definitely try it.
I’ve always enjoyed granola, but I rarely have it. I really should! This seems easy enough for me to try!
I eat granola almost every morning. It goes so good in my yogurt. I can’t wait to try yours.
