This Fall Grain Free Granola recipe is full of delicious and protein packed ingredients. Combined with a bit of coconut oil and honey and it becomes the perfect afternoon snack or yogurt topping. I love that you can use any nuts or seeds you have on hand, so I can always make up a batch! The hint of cinnamon along with the pumpkin seeds makes this our favorite fall granola.

Grain Free Granola Ingredients:

To make this grain free granola recipe, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • Almonds: Give them a rough chop.
  • Shredded Coconut: Definitely one of my favorite ways to sweeten just about any recipe!
  • Pumpkin Seeds (or Pepitas): I used pumpkin spiced seeds from Trader Joe’s to give it that great “Fall” flavor I love!
  • Sunflower Seeds: Packed with B complex vitamins.
  • Chia Seeds: This is where the protein starts coming in. Chia seeds have 4.7 grams of protein in 1 oz!
  • Hemp Seeds: Hemp seeds are considered a complete protein, meaning they provide all the essential amino acids.
  • Coconut Oil: My favorite way to bind and add a bit of moisture without the unhealthy fat.
  • Cinnamon: Get that delicious Fall flavor going!
  • Vanilla Extract: This will amp up the flavor of those delicious nuts and seeds.
  • Honey: Just a touch of sweetness, plus it helps create those great granola clusters!
  • Salt: Just be sure not to add any salt if you’re using any salted nuts.
