Just like blueberry muffins, homemade bagels, and pumpkin scones, this peanut butter granola recipe is great for busy mornings.
I love to make a big batch (it’s so quick and easy!) and keep it in a jar on our kitchen counter. It stays light & crisp for weeks and it’s great with a splash of milk, a dollop of yogurt, or in a parfait.
Ingredients4 cups old-fashioned oats
1 cup peanuts
1/2 cup light brown sugar (loosely packed)
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, scant
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted (1 stick)
1 cup peanut butter
1/3 cup honey
2 egg whites, large
Method- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F, line a baking sheet with foil, and mist with non-stick spray.
- Place the oats, peanuts, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl and stir to combine.
- Whisk the melted butter, peanut butter, honey, and egg whites together and pour over the oat mixture.
- Stir together until well-coated and transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake until fragrant, golden brown, and toasty (approx. 35 to 40 minutes).
- Cool on the baking sheet, break up into bite-sized clusters, and store at room temperature in an airtight container.
