Roasted Rhubarb with Yogurt and Coconut Almond Granola

 

Rhubarb season is my favorite!!

I love it so much I planted rhubarb on the side of our house. I get giddy every time it is time to pick more. Rhubarb is just so summery and bright and it totally works over ice cream but also some yogurt with a little of that granola I made last week!

I knew from the start the coconut almond granola was going to be awesome. However, when it’s paired with some roasted rhubarb and yogurt it is beyond awesome!

I seriously believe all rhubarb recipes are pretty simple but this one is the easiest one I have ever made. It only requires two ingredients. TWO! That’s it.

  • Rhubarb
  • Granulated Sugar

I have been eating this yumminess every day since. I know it would be great over ice cream but we haven’t had any in the house so I have been eating it over a little greek yogurt with some crumbled up big cluster coconut almond granola I made last week. It’s a 10!

If you don’t have the time to make your own homemade granola, just grab your favorite kind from the store and use that instead! It will still be great!

Hey there!

How do you guys feel about homemade granola? I mean are you more interested in just buying it from the store? I can completely identify with that because I usually just buy it. Literally, it is in my grocery cart every week. We really like the Bear Naked Cacao and Cashew Butter kind. However, every couple months I make a batch of homemade granola and I’m like why don’t I do this more?!? I end up with a whole lot more granola than the bag I purchase and it’s soooo delicious!!

And it’s so fun to mix and match ingredients to fit your granola mood.

Yup, granola mood is a thing.

Like I am always in the mood for granola. Ha!

The cool thing about making homemade granola is the simplicity of it. It’s much easier than most people probably even realize.

It goes like this:

  • Grab 2 bowls, one bigger and one a little smaller.
  • Mix the dry ingredients in the bigger bowl.
  • Whisk the wet ingredients together in the smaller bowl.
  • Pour the wet ingredients in to the dry ones and stir.
  • Spread mixture onto a baking sheet evenly.
  • Bake at 350℉ for 15-20 minutes.

 

What’s not to love about that?!

If you are interested in some more kinds, I also made this homemade cinnamon pecan granola and this coconut and cashew granola with chocolate chips.

They are both fantastic!

Granola is definitely great on its own but I like it best on some yogurt with some fresh berries and maybe a dab of whipped cream if I feel like getting fancy. I also like it on top of smoothies.

Well this granola recipe was actually created for an upcoming recipe but I just had to separate this granola from it because it totally deserves a post on its own.

I can’t wait to share my next post with you all because it’s such a great snack/dessert/any time of day I need a little something kinda thing!!

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups whole oats
  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds
  • 1/2 cup pepitas*
  • 1 cup unsweetened coconut
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 egg white lightly beaten
  • 1/2 cup canola oil
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 3 tablespoons almond butter

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350℉.
  • In a large bowl combine oats, almonds, pepitas, coconut, and coconut sugar.
  • In a medium bowl whisk together egg white, canola oil, almond extract, honey, and almond butter.
  • Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir until well incorporated.
  • Spread mixture out onto a rimmed baking sheet evenly.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes or until granola is golden brown.
  • Let cool completely. I have a hard time waiting until granola is completely cooled to try it but big clusters tear apart easier once it has cooled completely.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

*If using unsalted pepitas, you can add a pinch of salt to dry ingredients otherwise no need to add any additional salt.
In order to get the big clusters, once it is in the oven do NOT shake the pan or mix up the granola at all. Just leave it as is until it is done baking and you will get big clusters! 🙂

Are you aware that homemade granola is one of the best foods ever?! It is also one of my favorite foods to make because it is so easy. This chewy Coconut Cashew Granola is healthy enough for breakfast and tasty enough for that mid-afternoon snack. I love it over a bowl of greek yogurt, mixed in with a bowl of sliced bananas, or a la carte is superb too!

One of the things I find with granola is that I can find myself enjoying a bite here or there any time of the day. In fact, any time one enters the kitchen you can expect a few clusters of this magnificent granola to disappear.

Well folks, spending the weekend outdoors in the beautiful weather here in NE has most certainly taken its toll on me. I am talking sneeze upon sneeze, constant itchy eyes to the point I ponder if any of my allergy medicine is helping at all. Oh, and I can’t leave out the immediate congestion that takes effect the minute I lie down. A constant cycle brought on by the wonderful late summer weather…at least I have my granola.
