Don’t you just love snacking on cluster granola?  Don’t you hate paying those astronomical prices?  I know I answer “yes” to both those questions.

Since discovering I can make granola at home I can’t seem to keep it stocked at my house.  Everyone loves it and it’s so much better than store-bought. Plus you can pick and choose what you add to the mix!  It’s a win-win.

Try our Peanut Butter Balls!

Large Cluster Granola

I chose to add dried cranberries and pepitas (pumpkin seeds).  You can choose different dried fruit and/or nuts.

It’s gluten-free (be sure to check the oats you are using)!

It’s so simple to make this big cluster granola recipe.

Preheat oven to 325 degrees and prepare a large baking sheet with parchment paper or grease the pan. (One with a raised edge)

In a large bowl combine oats, nuts, salt, and cinnamon. In another bowl whisk together honey, brown sugar, oil, and vanilla.

Pour the wet mixture over the oats mixture and stir to coat well.

Beat the egg white in a separate bowl and pour over the mixture. Mix to coat evenly with the egg white.

Our Pumpkin Muffins are a huge hit!

Spread the mixture onto the baking sheet in an even layer and bake 20 minutes or until the granola is uniformly golden and no longer moist. Watch closely!

Allow to cool completely (the granola will crisp a little more as it cools.)

Once cooled to room temperature break into large chunks and store granola in an airtight container for 1-2 weeks. (ours never lasts that long)

We love this recipe and make it constantly.
