Frequently Asked Questions

Expand All:
Can I use fresh berries instead of dried ones?

Yes, but add them after baking to avoid burning or excess moisture. Dried berries are better for baking; fresh ones are perfect for serving.

Is this granola gluten-free?

Spelt contains gluten, though it’s gentler for some people. If you need gluten-free granola, use certified gluten-free oats instead.

How long does homemade granola stay fresh?

Store it in an airtight jar at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. You can also freeze it for longer shelf life.

Can I make it oil-free or vegan?

Yes. The base recipe is already vegan. For oil-free, replace oil with unsweetened applesauce or mashed banana, but note the texture will be less crunchy.

Can I turn this into granola bars?

Definitely! Press the granola mixture into a lined baking dish, bake slightly longer, cool fully, and slice into berry granola bars.

What’s the best way to serve this?

Enjoy over plant-based yogurt, smoothie bowls, or with cold plant milk. It also works well as a berry granola topping for desserts.
