Notes
- Special diets
- Make it gluten-free: To make this recipe gluten free, read your labels and make sure your oats are certified gluten free.
- Make it Vegan: To make a vegan breakfast parfait, use vegan yogurt such as cashew yogurt or coconut yogurt.
- Storage and Freezing
- Freezing: This recipe cannot be frozen as yogurt is best when served within 5 days of opening.
- Storage: Store the stovetop granola in an airtight jar in a cool, dry place for up to 1 month.
- Always keep an eye on the temperature of your pan as nuts and oats could burn quickly. Start with a medium low heat.
- A cast iron pan will help toast up the nuts and oats evenly.
- To make ahead of time, keep yogurt and granola separate to make sure the granola does not get soggy.
- Granola should be stored in a jar in a cool dry place.
- Change up your granola by using your favorite nuts including pecans, macadamia nuts or even pistachios.
- Try making your own yogurt for the perfect breakfast made completely from scratch.
- Add different flavors to your yogurt by purchasing flavored yogurt or adding a few drops of your favorite flavor extract.
- To add an extra layer of sweet, try adding some chocolate chips or white chocolate chips to the skillet granola once it's fully cool.
