Have you made granola or muesli before? If not you really should! It’s super simple and comes together in no time at all. And because you make it yourself you will know exactly what is in it. This Honey Pecan Granola is super tasty and has lots of nuts and seeds so it’s packed with goodness.

Then, spread the combined Honey Pecan Muesli mixture evenly over the lined baking tray. Bake the mixture for 4 minutes then remove from the oven and stir well.

Then continue baking the Honey Pecan Granola for a further 4 minutes. Make sure that you check the muesli as it cooks to make sure it does not burn. When golden brown remove the muesli from the oven and cool completely. Store the muesli in an airtight container for several weeks. 


Substitutions 

You could easily make this granola vegan by replacing the honey for maple syrup – though technically would then be called Maple Pecan Granola 😉. You could also use coconut oil instead of the olive oil. If you wanted this to be gluten free you can either use certified gluten free oats or replace the oats with an equal measure of more nuts and seeds.

Serving Suggestions for the Honey Pecan Granola

I love this muesli with a tart unsweetened Greek yogurt and fresh berries, it’s the perfect fibre packed way to start the day!

If you love the sound of this muesli you may also enjoy this Gingerbread Muesli. Or for another great breakfast recipe you may love this healthier Banana Bread with no added sugar.
