Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups gluten-free rolled oats
- 3/4 cup sliced almonds
- 3/4 cup chopped pecans
- 1/2 cup coconut chips
- 1.2 oz freeze-dried berries
Wet Ingredients
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 3 tbsp coconut oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer: Set your air fryer to 320°F (160°C) to warm up while you prepare the granola mixture.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the gluten-free rolled oats, sliced almonds, chopped pecans, and coconut chips.
- Combine wet ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until fully blended.
- Coat the dry mixture: Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and stir well to ensure every bit is evenly coated.
- Air fry the granola: Transfer the mixture into the air fryer basket or tray spread evenly. Cook for about 12-15 minutes, shaking the basket every 5 minutes to ensure even toasting and prevent burning.
- Cool and add berries: Once golden and crisp, remove the granola and let it cool completely. After cooling, gently mix in the freeze-dried berries.
- Serve or store: Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
Notes
- Shaking the basket every 5 minutes ensures even cooking and prevents burning.
- Adjust the air frying time depending on your air fryer model and desired crispiness.
- Use gluten-free oats to maintain the gluten-free quality.
- You can substitute maple syrup with honey, but note that this is not vegan-friendly.
- Freeze-dried berries add flavor without moisture; avoid using fresh berries as they may make the granola soggy.
