Four ingredients are all that you need for this easy homemade Peanut Butter Granola Recipe. 

Homemade Granola

My kids love granola. We have been making homemade granola for years. I love that I can control the ingredients when I make my own granola. It is easy to adapt to how we like it and to our food allergies.

Over the years I have made many different homemade granola recipes that my family loved. But this recipe today is my son’s favorite. He will eat this peanut butter granola for breakfast, lunch, and snacks. 

Can I make homemade granola nut free or make it with other nut butters?

Yes, you can. I have made this recipe for years. When my daughter developed her peanut nut, tree nut allergy, I started using Sunbutter or Wowbutter and it works great. Other nut butters work as well. 

Is homemade granola gluten free?

If you use gluten free oats and read labels to be sure the ingredients are gluten free, homemade granola is easy to make gluten free. 

The recipe originally came from an Ebook that Money Saving Mom put together years ago. I actually think the Ebook was done before she started Money Saving Mom. I enjoyed the Ebook and this was my favorite recipe from it.

This is one of the easiest granola recipes that I have made. Not only is this granola easy to put together, but it is does not cook for long at all, so it is also a quick granola to make. 

If you enjoy homemade granola you might enjoy one of my other granola recipes.

Peanut Butter Granola is an easy four ingredient homemade breakfast.

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cook Time 25 minutes

Total Time 30 minutes

Ingredients

• 6 tablespoons oil, coconut oil works great, but other oils work too
• 1 cup peanut butter, Soy butter or Sun Butter works too
• 1 ½ cups brown sugar
• 7 cups oats, for a gluten free granola use gluten free oats, old fashioned, quick, or a mix of both. See note below.

Instructions

1. Cook oil and peanut butter over low heat until it is melted and smooth.
2. Remove from heat and add sugar.
3. Add oats and stir well until oats are coated.
4. Spread onto cookie sheet.
5. Bake at 350 for 18-20 minutes stirring at least once.

Notes

Old fashioned oats will give you more texture. Quick oats will be a finer texture. I usually use a mix of both.

BBQ Chicken Salad is a simple lunch or dinner. It is full of flavor and goes together in no time! 

Are you looking for meals where meat is not the star of the recipe? 

This salad is a great way to stretch meat in a meal.

BBQ Chicken Salad contains meat, as is obvious from the title, but it is mixed with coleslaw and sauce to make a delicious main dish salad. 

BBQ Chicken Salad would also be a great dish for a potluck or picnic.

I had trouble coming up with the name for this. It contains cabbage and is similar to coleslaw, but since it contains bbq sauce and meat, it is also very different than coleslaw. 

No matter what you call this it is a simple and delicious meal! 

Most main dish salads contain lettuce, but cabbage is the star of this recipe. The coleslaw mix makes this easy to make and gives the salad a nice crunch.

It also holds up well for a day or two in the fridge, so it is a great make ahead recipe. You can make this and serve it right away or you can make it earlier in the day or the day before you serve it. 

This salad is also gluten free as long as your bbq sauce does not contain gluten. It is normal food that just happens to be gluten free.
