Easy make-ahead breakfast with this homemade Cherry, Coconut & Almond Granola

Yes, I’m still fixated on breakfast … there are so many healthy options for the most important meal of the day, I’m just getting started! Granola from a box was always something I craved, but avoided, because of the high sugar and hefty calorie count. Does it have to be that way? Not if you make it at home.

Cherry-Coconut-Almond-Granola_2r I know what you’re thinking… Will it taste good? Will it fill me up? With lots of oats, flax seeds and yummy almond butter, this granola is going to keep you full all day.


Cherry-Coconut-Almond-Granola_3r You can make a batch of this granola on the weekend, seal it in an air-tight jar, and it’s ready to go for up to a month (note: it will never last that long….).

Cherry-Coconut-Almond-Granola_5r Coconut is one of my favourite flavours, I love serving this crunchy cereal mix over a big bowl of Greek yogurt. Pile the Cherry, Coconut & Almond Granola on top and then drizzle it with agave or maple syrup… already tasting the total delishiousness.

      Hi Kellie, I think I may have used pumpkin seeds. You can use sunflower or pumpkin.
