quick and easy keto granola recipe

This gluten-free granola recipe makes a delicious start to your day! Add it to a bowl like cereal and top it with milk or add it to your yogurt to give it some crunch.

gluten-free cinnamon granola recipe that is also grain-free, sugar-free, low-carb, and keto-friendly.

This grain-free granola also makes a delicious Keto cereal substitute. It is a sugar-free, low-carb granola recipe that fits a variety of dietary needs, so if you are looking for an easy grab and go Keto diet breakfast idea, this will work. Despite the fact that it doesn’t have sugar or grains, the cinnamon and vanilla ensure this low-carb breakfast cereal has lots of flavor!

Filled with nuts and seeds, this gluten-free cinnamon granola makes a tasty and filling afternoon snack.

We used Swerve and Honest Maple Pecan Syrup to create a sugar-free granola recipe and almond flour to keep it grain-free. If you also avoid dairy, use coconut oil, to ensure your batch is dairy-free as well. 

Gluten-Free Granola Recipe

Ingredients:

  • ½ cup sliced almonds
  • ½ cup chopped pecans
  • ½ cup chopped walnuts
  • ⅓ cup raw pumpkin seeds
  • ½ cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 4 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 3 tablespoons almond flour
  • 1 tablespoon Erythritol or another sugar-free sweetener like Swerve
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil, butter, or ghee, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons sugar-free syrup (we used Honest Maple Pecan Syrup)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the unsweetened shredded coconut, sliced almonds, chopped pecans, and chopped walnuts.
  3. Add in pumpkin seeds, chia seeds, almond flour, cinnamon, and erythritol. If you wish to use a different keto-friendly sweetener, you can swap them out without an issue. Stir the ingredients to combine them well.
  4. Mix in 1 teaspoon of vanilla.
  5. Pour the melted butter over the top of the granola, and stir to combine.
  6. Stir in 2 tablespoons of a keto-friendly sugar-free syrup. Be sure to check the label and find a sugar free syrup with a low number of carbs.
  7. Place the granola in a flat single layer spread out on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
  8. Bake the granola for 10-15 minutes until it is crispy and toasted. Do not overcook, or your granola will taste burnt.
  9. Let the granola cool down, and then break apart any large pieces. Store any unused granola in the fridge in an air-tight container.

    Does it have to be refrigerated or just in air tight container? I’ve never seen granola in the fridge.

    What’s the function of the almond flour in the recipe? I’va only seen recipes for granola that dind’t include any flour until now, so I was wondering what could be the difference between using it rather than not. And about the sugar-frre syrup: caould I skip it if I don’t have any on hand…?

    I found nutrition info for a low carb, grain and gluten-free granola. Should be a good guide.

    Serving size 1/4 cup (50g)
    287 calories
    15g total carbs
    6g dietary fiber
    8g net carbs
    8g sugars
    6g protein.

    Hope this helps.

Welcome. I'm Alea!

On Premeditated Leftovers I share simple recipes made with whole foods, practical shopping tips, time saving techniques, and meal planning strategies. I also share tips for minimizing food waste, so more of the food that is purchased ends up on the table.

While volunteering as a budget counselor, I realized that food is the element of most people’s budgets where they have the greatest control. I set out to develop low-cost recipes from scratch to prove it’s possible to create delicious meals on a limited budget. Eating well while spending less is about more than just creating recipes using inexpensive ingredients; it’s about creatively combining ingredients so you don’t feel deprived and are inspired to stick to your budget.
