gluten free banana nut granola

March 29, 2014 by Sarah 1 Comment

Granola for breakfast. Granola for a snack. I could eat granola all day long! I love the crunch from the toasted nuts and the texture from the chewy rolled oats. It’s just a pure, simple snack that anybody can make. No excuses, people. Gluten free granola is a total no brainer.

The smell of this gluten free banana nut granola baking in your oven, is pretty much like the smell of freshly baked banana bread. We all know it…heaven. Ripe bananas, pure maple syrup, brown sugar, walnuts. A flavor combination that never, ever gets old. Now you can enjoy those flavors of banana bread in a gluten free granola. You can thank me later.

Want to know my favorite way to eat this banana nut granola? Over So Delicious cultured unsweetened vanilla coconut milk, just about the best dairy free yogurt out there. I also like to add a layer of either sliced fresh strawberries or banana. A breakfast that will make your tummy do a happy dance!
