4 Ingredient Homemade Vegan Granola Recipe

January 11, 2020

[yasr_overall_rating null size=”medium”]

With the New Year there are always some resolutions about going back to sports and I am not an exception. With sports, nutrition is equally important and what we eat before and after is crucial. Knowing what your body needs is also a plus. I know my body usually craves proteins and something with fat content after a workout, so I always end up eating some eggs, tofu or nothing at all which isn’t great. I decided to explore alternatives and found that some granola and yogurt is great. Store-bought granola usually has a lot of sugar, so I’ve decided to make my own, 0 fuss 4 ingredient vegan granola recipe to fight against unnecessary sugar!

Also, before we get into the recipe, I’d like to say that below all the recipe cards there will be a french translation of the recipe included! Be sure to check it out.

Vegan Granola Recipe: The shortest ingredient list

Buckle up for the shortest and easiest ingredient list to be ever featured in tofucado:

  • Oats
  • Peanut Butter (Or any other type of vegan butter)
  • Maple Syrup (If you aren’t vegan, you can use honey)
  • Nuts
  • Optional toppings: Dark chocolate, Banana, dates, dried fruits….

That’s it! That’s all you need.

How do you make it?

The ingredient list is easy but the instructions are also su-per easy! You are going to need one mixing bowl and an oven tray that has lined with parchment paper (And an oven, too!). You will mix all the ingredients in a bowl, then place them in an oven tray and just cook the granola for a bit.

Storing the granola

I have a couple of jars at home that work really well to store the granola. I left mine in the cupboard at room temperature with the rest of my breakfast stuff, that way it is rather easy to find. If you don’t have any jars like mine, an air-tight container will do the work.

4 Ingredient Vegan Granola

Prep Time5 mins
Cook Time20 mins
Total Time25 mins
Course: Breakfast
Cuisine: American
Keyword: granola
Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 1 and 1/2 cups Oats
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 cup nuts
  • Optional: Dark chocolate, banana, dates, dried fruits, …

Instructions

  • Pre-heat the oven at 170ºC.
  • In a mixing bowl, add the nuts (You can lightly chop them up), the oats, the peanut butter and maple syrup.
  • Mix super well, making sure all the ingredients are well-mixed and forming kinda like a paste. It is going to be a bit hard to mix, but keep on going.
  • In the lined tray, add all the mixture and line it all gently into an even layer. With the help of a spoon, break the mixture into some chunks, but don't go crazy (like I did), or you'll end up with very small chunks.
  • Put the tray in the oven and cook for about 20 minutes. Mid-way through the cooking time, shake a bit the tray so the chunks move a bit.
  • Take it out of the oven when you start seeing the granola chunks golden a bit. Let it cool down for around 30 minutes, or just store it in an air-tight container and use it later.

Notes

How to eat: I ate some of it with rice milk, and also with some soy yogurt and fruits. My boyfriend had his with some milk and chopped chocolate and some banana.

  3. Mélangez tout très très bien jusqu’à obténir une pâte épaisse.
  4. Versez la pâte dans un plat à four couvert du papier cuisson.
  5. Étalez bien la pâte pour créer une couche uniforme et puis, à l’aide d’une cuillère, cassez la pâte en faisant des gros morceaux de granola.

  7. Sortez le plat du four et laissez reposer pendant 30 minutes avant le déguster.

Pour la dégustation: J’ai mangé mon granola avec un peu de boisson de riz, tout simple. Mon copain l’a mangé avec du lait et il a rajouté quelques morceaux de chocolat noir.

I am so excited to read these books but except the "for the throne" book, I don't really know what they are about. 

💬 Do you usually buy books just because of the cover?
📚Book review: A haunted road atlas by @theemsch 📚Book review: A haunted road atlas by @theemschulz and @xtineschiefer (podcast @atwwdpodcast) 

I gotta say I was way too excited about this book because it is the first time I can actually buy something from my favourite podcasters without having to pay +50€ of shipping. But that's just a side note. 

🌍What is this book about? As the title says, it's a guide of haunted places in the US :  a mix of paranormal and true crime stories told by Em and Christine and other cool / haunted places to visit in each city/state. 

👻The stories, while obviously dark, are told in a funny way and it goes by like a breeze. I read it like a normal book, but you can totally read it one state at a time and it'd be even greater.

The book is quite original because well, there is a million road trip guides out there but few like this one! 

🔥I'm a huge fan of ATWWD so i may be a bit biased, but nonetheless this was great and entertaining and I really want to do a freaking road trip now!

✨ January wrap up ✨ Some very good books but s ✨ January wrap up ✨
Some very good books but some very bad ones too in January. My fave read was "Le refuges" by Jérôme Loubry, such a Great thriller. 
The worst was house of accidents, it could have been SO GOOD, yet it was...so bad.

How many did you read this month? And which one was your favourite?

✨Meat & veggie broth✨ Quick recipe with the In ✨Meat & veggie broth✨
Quick recipe with the Instant pot today : this is one of my favourite things to make because you get : awesome broth, awesome meat and veggies, and tons of possible meals out of it. 

To make this easy broth you will need : 
- 2 to 3 different types of meat : I usually get jamón (but in France it's very costly to find good one), chicken legs, beef ribs or beef meatballs). For this one I used the chicken legs, beef ribs and pork belly. 
- veggies: all you want, everyone is welcomed !! I mainly use cabbage, carrots, leek, celery, potatoes. Sometimes I put garlic in there. 
- chickpeas 
- salt and pepperrrrr
- i use a bit of soy sauce to give an extra quick as well. 

Now, put everything in the instant pot, put water till almost the max limit and close the lid. If you making it with meat, go 1h + natural release (up to two hours).
