Nothing puts me in the mood for Christmas more than the house smelling like sugar and cinnamon. This Christmas granola recipe always makes me excited for the holidays. This is an easy granola recipe for the holidays and a great basic granola recipe to enjoy all year long.

This Christmas granola recipe is sure to put you in the mood for the holidays. The cinnamon sugar smell is the best!

 

Christmas granola recipe is a total crowd pleaser

Christmas granola is such an inexpensive crowd pleaser. Have you seen the price of cereal lately? We go through it really fast with 4 growing boys in the house, so I always like to make a batch of granola every few months just to switch things up a bit and save a little money.

While we love this around the holidays, it’s pretty perfect any time of the year that you want cinnamon granola! I know you’ll love this recipe as much as I do.

Christmas Granola Recipe

Ingredients

  • 4 C. oats
  • 1 C. pecan pieces
  • 1/4 C. cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp. nutmeg
  • 1/3 C. brown sugar
  • 1/2 C. coconut oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400.
  2. In a large bowl combine the first 4 ingredients.
  3. Combine the brown sugar and oil in another bowl and add it to the dry ingredients.
  4. Put on a cookie sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, until the pecans are toasted to your liking.
  5. Toss the granola every 5-10 minutes to make sure it evenly cooks.
  6. It will still be “wet” when you take it out of the oven, but will harden as it cools.
  7. Let it completely cool before you break it into pieces and store in an airtight container.

    This looks so good! I have never made my own granola because most of the recipes have a crap ton of ingredients, this is going on our meal plan for next week!

      I’m with you on avoiding too many ingredients. If a recipe has too many, I won’t even try it!

    Thanks Hannah for sharing your Christmas Granola recipe. Love the pictures. I have to admit I don’t eat granola, becase it contains so much sugar. I’m going to adapt your recipe and put dates( a natural sweetener) in there instead of sugar. I’ll use applesauce instead of some of the oil and see how it turns out. Happy Holidays and be well.

      Yes! Please adapt it and let me know how it goes. We love dates and applesauce in this house so I’d love to try it your way too!

    Yum! This looks delicious and so easy! My newborn is named Robert after my Dad. I loved hearing of another little boy named Robert too.
