Making homemade granola at home is super easy. Most granola recipes are very affordable, and this strawberry granola recipe is no exception. Make a batch of this flavorful homemade granola and eat it throughout the week for breakfasts or just as a snack.

That’s so granola.

If this is what they mean by “being granola”, count me in!

If you’ve never made homemade granola at home, you’re missing out. Here’s why:

• It’s super easy to make. You just mix oats, nuts, and other add-ins with a homemade sauce and bake.
• It tastes great: Personally, I think it tastes a lot better than the stuff you buy in the store. When you make it at home, you can play around with different spices, flavors, add-ins, level of sweetness, etc. When you buy granola in the store, it seems like it always tastes the same, no matter what brand you buy.
• It’s cheap: Since oatmeal is oat-based, it makes for a very cheap breakfast. Plus, I seem to always have ingredients for granola on hand at home.

I wanted to feature a new granola recipe for spring, and thought a strawberry variety would be fitting.

This granola is flavored with strawberry jam, and is decked out with dehydrated strawberries. Serve with fresh strawberries for even more strawberry goodness!

Why This Recipe Works

• Simple Ingredients: You likely have oats, oil, and sugar in your pantry already.
• Big Strawberry Flavor: Dehydrated strawberries and strawberry jam pack a flavor punch without overpowering.
• Customizable Crunch: Adjust sweetness or add-ins (more strawberries, more seeds or nuts) to suit your taste.

Pro Tip: For extra-clumpy granola, press the mixture tightly into the baking sheet before baking and let it cool completely before breaking it apart.

Serving Ideas

• Layer in a yogurt parfait with vanilla yogurt and fresh berries.
• Sprinkle over a smoothie bowl for crunch.
• Mix into pancake batter for a fun twist.
• Eat as a trail mix with added chocolate chips.

Shopping tip: I picked up a bag of dehydrated strawberries at Trader Joe’s for about $3.00. I used about half the bag for this batch of granola. If you have a food dehydrator, you can also make your own dehydrated strawberries for this recipe.

Strawberry Granola Recipe

Yield: 6 servings

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 25 minutes

Total Time: 35 minutes

This recipe yields granola that is nice and clumpy, as odd as that sounds. In my experience, the trick to getting clumpy (or chunky) granola is making sure there is enough liquid to make the oats stick together. This recipe uses about 1 cup of liquid to 3 1/2 cups of dry ingredients.

• 1/3 cup coconut oil
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1/3 cup strawberry jam
• 3 cups oats
• 1/3 cup ground flax seeds
• 1/2 cup chopped almonds
• 1 cup dehydrated strawberries

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 325F. In a large saucepan over medium heat, mix coconut oil, honey, and strawberry jam together until well combined. In a separate bowl, combine oats, flax seeds, and almonds. Pour liquid mixture into oat mixture and stir well.
2. Coat a 15x10x1 inch baking sheet with cooking spray. Pour oat mixture onto pan and press down. Bake granola for approximately 25 minutes, stirring once about half way through. Remove granola from oven and allow to cool without stirring. Once granola is cool, break apart into pieces. Add dehydrated strawberries and store in an airtight container.
