A Sugar-Free Cinnamon and Banana Granola Recipe Perfect for Winter Mornings

This healthy homemade cinnamon granola is vegan, high in fiber, gluten free, naturally sweetened with fruit and is completely oil free.

What is the secret to making an oil free and no sugar granola? Banana! That humble banana adds sweetness to everything, and when pureed acts as a binder in a similar way to the tons of oil and sugar you’ll find in store-bought and most traditional granola recipes.

It’s made with a combination of oats, pecans, mashed banana, coconut oil, seasonings and stevia for a healthy granola recipe that is vegan, gluten-free (*use gluten-free oats) and is absolutely delicious!

This banana cinnamon granola recipe is rich, slightly nutty and fruity with a faint natural sweetness and a warming spice flavor.

This recipe can also be made into granola variations. Here is how you can switch it up:

  • Mix in unsweetened chocolate chips after baking

  • Mix in unsweetened raisins, hemp seeds and sunflower seeds, use any nut, seed and coconut

  • Try spices like pumpkin pie spice or ginger

  • Mix in crushed dried banana chips or strawberries after baking

I love to enjoy this cinnamon granola sprinkled on top of yogurt with berries or used as a crunchy layer in my No-Bake Pumpkin Cheesecake Mousse. And this granola can be stored in a sealed jar for up to a week.

With all of that said, here’s your recipe!
