The first time I made this I added the raisins before I baked it....those little burnt, black balls of disgusting failure ruined the whole batch. lol. Great video. I love the no measure!
No! Dried fruit goes in after! I'm sorry you ruined your batch. You will like it much better without burnt raisin balls ;0)
lol....yes, after that I learned. Like most of my homemade/sustainable ventures, it is trial and error. lol
Thanks for the laughs. This comment made my day!
@@lindsay644 Same. my dog jumped I laughed so suddenly
Russell Franke you can soak the raisins first in warm water
I always add coconut flakes into the mix so they get toasted when the granola is cooking. Yum. Agreed homemade is so much nicer and you know what goes into it.
Great tip!
I add coconut before and after because I like toasted and untoasted coconut in my granola. I love this simple recipe. I thought my recipe was simple but this is even more simple. I will be making it soon.
I did the math. It's 1/4 the the price!
I absolutely love this granola. Not only is it 1/4 of the price but it’s miles better than store bought! Thank you so much for this recipe ☺️
Love making and eating granola! My base recipe varies slightly and I'll often use pure maple syrup instead of honey. Our two standard "flavors" are: flax, pecan, apricot and chia, pistachio, cranberry.
That looked like a cup of honey haha
Thats the beauty of cooking, u dont need measuring cups u just add the amount u like.
Thank you very much . These healthy money saving tips are awesome help for so many people
your cool points just shot way up,just wish they were a little more sticky to make bars,any tips on that,and buy the way y'all should go into beekeeping,if you haven't,that's on my must do list,thanks for taking the time to help others! !!
+Jay Robertson I don't make granola bars, but you can certainly make them with this same recipe. Just use 2 cups of oats instead of 4 and grind half the oats to a flour (1 cup). Then bake in a pan. Bees are definitely on the "to do" list
Mm! Yes, for sure going to hook the fam up with some custom granola! I agree with you on the microwave issue. We were microwave free during our short empty-nester stint, but we do have one now so we can heat things up faster and listen to hungry yowling less :) I just sent hubby a text for raisins and almonds on his way home. Great video!
+Noble Homestead Awesome!
Making granola today. Used this video as a reference. Had to use almond extract because am currently out of vanilla, but my pre-cooking taste test passes, so am assuming it will turn out OK. It's in the oven now!
Yum! Looks great! Adding this to my Christmas gift baskets.
That’s a great idea!
I have a similar recipe ... except I scaled it to work from a standard 40oz oatmeal container. Dump a whole container in the mixing bowl and go from there. Use the empty oatmeal container to hold a lot of the granola.
I used a tsp of chinese 5 spice. AMAZING!
i love that you cook like i do--most of it is recipes i have thrown together by taste, trial & error or recipes that i've tried & modified over the years. loving your videos!
At last !!
People who are sensible, logical, practical and keep it simple with options to vary things to suit individual tastes etc without dribbling on & on for hours about crap !!
LOVE IT !!
I Will definitely be watching more of you guys !!
KEEP IT UP !!!
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching
Thanks for this recipe! Simple simple. Making later today!
I love your haircut. Hairdresser here making granola
Oh boy, I love these simple, healthy, one-bowl recipes. I'll try this tonight or tomorrow. Thanks!
I made this today and it was yummy! I added coconut flakes and chocolate chips. I don't think I can ever justify purchasing granola ever again. This was too easy and too good ❤️ thank you!
I was thinking about adding coconut and chocolate chips. Did you add much coconut?
@@KimberlyGingrich i added 1/4 of a cup of coconut 😊
I just made your recipe 👍 delicious. P.S. I notice you have a beautiful home and it's always so clean
+Olga Busch Oh I am so glad you like it!
Had to chuckle at the "once this microwave dies..." comment...I feel the same way. Once mine dies, i'm not getting another one. Make granola quite often. My fave is using raw pumpkin nuts & raw sunflower nuts, vanilla, cinnamon, and topping it off with freeze dried strawberries.
They are annoyingly convenient lol That recipe sounds good. Thanks for sharing
Hi, thank you for the great demo on granola, will mix and match my ingredients as you suggested. Best wishes from Australia.
Well I bought my ingredients,today so I am. Making this in a few min.
Ok, I am so glad this came up in my suggested videos to watch... I have made granola a lot and this is by far the best, the easiest and most of all most diversed recipe ♥ thank you for sharing... I actually have a batch in the oven as we speak, white chocolate, chocolate chips and pecans... my favorite.. thank you, thank you, thank you
I made granola for the first time this morning and it was a big hit with the family. Thanks so much for a great idea!!!
Fantastic!
THAT I am going to make! Thanks! Can you tell I am benging on your videos? lol!
You are so chill, no bullshit, and really awesome , love it
yum! would love to see a day in the life or what i eat in a day video....or land tour, house tour, etc.
+rocco alex That would be a boring video at this point! We did do a "day in" chicken video that you may like
i like preheating coconut oil and then adding my syrups ....maple and agave in equal proportions ... then adding the preheated portion to the oat mixture ... this allows for an easier blending process ... also i blend in my nuts and dried fruit immediately out of the oven ...as this tends to homogenize the mixture ....when roasting a nut mixture in cast iron ...ill often add raisins in the final stages and then salt the mixture for a sweet and salty variety of explosive tastes ....Viking
Wow! Great video! I just discovered your channel and love your straightforward approach to showing us how you do it. Thank you so much. I've subbed and hit the notification bell. :-)
Awesome 😎 Welcome to the circus!
Thanks, I used to make this way back in the 70's and I just could not remember how it was done. Looking forward to making it again now.
+Irish Eyes Let me know how they turn out
Love your cook from scratch playlist! You've kept me company while canning today! :)
Lol exactly how I cook! Without any measuring cups/spoons.
Just an FYI for those that can't make their own granola for whatever reason. Instead of buying granola from the snack aisle of the grocery store, buy the granola cereal. It costs half the price.
I made the mistake of adding salted pumpkin seeds to my granola. They are too tough and too salty. And instead of raisins I used dried cranberries.
I like to eat my granola on top of fresh homemade yogurt. I do have a yogurt maker so it helps with controlling the temperature as it rests.
Also, this granola is delicious as a cereal or a cereal additive. Thanks.
Thanks for yet another awesome video. I made my first batch of granola following your ‘recipe’ and did not use the egg whites. It turned out crunchy and very tasty but very loose. I was hoping for a chunkier version. I thought maybe I didn’t use enough honey/maple syrup. I’ll experiment next time. Thanks again.
tried your recipe today, but I hate almonds so I used a little bit of walnuts and pecans. PERFECT !! Hubby loves it!! Thank you!!
What about one of those reusable baking liners?
I never understood why granola was so expensive in the store? Great simple recipe. I've been doing something similar for years switching between maple syrup and honey w/some nuts.
I love granola. Thanks for showing how easy it is to make. I'll definitely be doing a batch this week!
We love it, I hope you do as well! I just made a batch of chocolate pecan (with cocoa powder). Delicious!
lease let this be just regular granola. EVERYONE ADDS SO DANG MUCH !!!
Hi, please excuse my ignorance but what is granola and how do you eat it?? Maybe in Australia we call it something different.
Oats and honey and you eat it as a cereal with milk or as a topping to food like yogurt
Thanks for the reply. I am going to be making this. Just watched your yoghurt video also. Really enjoy watching you guys are great.
I also eat it as a snack. Dry Love eating that way also.
love ur video! its like a friend is teaching me ♡
Best gronola ever eat. My friends and family loved it. Thank you for the perfect and delicious recipe.
You cook like I do. I don’t measure anything. It almost always works.
Excited to make granola and yogurt! May need a Skype coaching session since it wasn't too long ago I realized a cake could be made without a box ; ). Love the videos!
+Raylene Browne lol!
Today I am doing a orange and cranberry flavor. I used some orange zest to give the orange flavor
can you use quick oats? I am trying to make them useful because I have a lot of them :)
This was the best and easiest granola recipe ever. Tfs!!
I absolutely love your granola recipe!!! Thanks a million!❤️
I really like your recipe. Thanks so much. I really liked using coconut oil instead of vegetable oil.
How long does homemade granola last before it expires?
Jamie, I have always enjoyed your thrifty recipe videos, but now I am really going to need them and I'm so thankful that they're here!
My oven is out of commission right now, but I have a Sun Oven. Do you suppose this would work if I kept the door propped open, like when dehydrating herbs, etc.?
Yep 👍🏻
I may of put too much salt 😅 like I always do 😣 but it tasted great other than that! Thank you! ❤️
Just tried this today!! Kind of had a fail, and burnt the first batch (my oven is a little touchy lol). But the 2nd batch turned out good! :D
+Kayla Webb Low and slow when it comes to granola. Glad you got a good batch!
thanks so much, and I wish I knew how you keep your oven so clean ;)
Love the No recipe idea so much more free and easy! Thankyou
Jaimy, do you dry your fruits or are they storebought?
Eggwhites, check, I could make it into a bar with that and use as takeway lunch. Nice variation. Thanks for the inspiration.
Store bought for now. We eat too many to dehydrate.
This is exactly the kind of ganola recipe I was looking for lol
Ok, my mistake. I commented before I watched whole vid. It's one quarter of the price before you add the rest of your granola ingredients.
It depends on the prices you purchase your items at...I get my oats in 50lb bags which saves a LOT. Same with nuts/seeds/honey. I have since reduced that amount even more. It costs me less than $3 for 2 quarts of granola
Guildbrook Farm | Simple Sustainable Living Such a great saving and what's even better is that the granola is personalized to your own taste!
Thanks for sharing! I look forward to making it. I've been making a basic recipe for "Overnight Oats" in small mason jars with Oatmeal (I use Steel Cut Oats), Greek yogurt, Organic Milk and adding various things like honey or maple syrup, vanilla, fruits and nuts to the recipe. Two of my favorites are: 1. Honey, Pineapple Tidbits, Coconut and Almonds. 2. Grated carrots, Cinnamon, Maple Syrup and Pecans. So simple... Make, Shake, Refrigerate Overnight and Ready.
+Kathy Haynes Great ideas!
Kathy Haynes steel cut,yep! !!
thanks for sharing this awesome recipe!
Do you beat the egg whites and pour them all over the granola and still bake at the same temperature and time?
I love your calming way of teaching. And your girls are adorable
Thank you and thanks for watching
Love this "recipe"! Lots of compliments :)
Cute hair cut! Love the freestyle cooking!
“No Recipe”..... 8 ingredients later. Let me write down this RECIPE.
I want to make this for my parfaits
Love you fast forward these how to videos can be way too long for busy people
My kind o' cookin! No measuring.
+Alicia Krick 😊👍🏻
Best granola recipe ever♥️♥️
Thank you this was so helpful... ❤
How about storing it? Does it need refrigeration?
what kind of oats do you use please?
I buy gluten free oats from Azure Standard
Can you use another oil besides coconut oil?
you're videos are very well done! thank you for sharing!!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for sharing this with us!
Really like your videos, never have made this but am going to try, thank you:)
Let me know how it turns out!
Is there any substitute for coconut oil?
Just poisoned it with microwave
Thank you for the recipe
Do you use milk
K in the granola to eat?
Want to make this. It has to be cheaper then store bought. When I moved to this place I did not get another microwave don't need it
Much!
Lower calorie less cost version; just bake oats and keep on hand.. then add whatever you want before eating.. it’s fine without oil and without sweetener.. this way you can be careful with calories.. like just add a teaspoon full of honey and a tablespoon of nuts and some nondairy milk or even water
What if your allergic to coconut
Do you have a website on which i can find and save your recipes? Just saying...i really like most of your stuff, but i hate having to write it down, you know? Lol... time constraints...
Is this just quick oats? 🤔 🙈😅
awesome. thanks!
Thanks will try this.
Wow Jaime thank you so much for this video. I was paying so much for my granola. Xxx☺🐣🐔🐤🐄🐐🍒🍓🌰
Looked good. I love dump cooks.
I just made cherry 🍒 almond granola! It smells good in here. Almond extract is cherry flavoring.
Hello, you put in the dried fuit and the chocolate chips after baking. But how will you do it when you make bars? Thank you. 🌷
This is great. I couldn’t find a single cereal free of seed oils. I guess I’ll be making my own from now on
where do you find a big bottle of vanilla like that? even using store brand vanilla in the little bottles its usually the most expensive part of any baking I do.
I love granola!!
My little one has tummy issues and I’ve mandated a bowl of oatmeal every week to help her. She will be so happy to have this as an alternate option.
This woman is so…. There’s something about her that makes me feel calm. I love her videos
Great video. I look forward to trying to make my own. Adding dry fruit is also a great idea. You are so smart. Thanks. God bless America.
The Mrs. says: dried fruit should be added "after" the baking.
