Unfortunately, it’s the sugar that makes granola chunky. But we’ve found a different way: with almond butter and bananas. These chunk clusters taste good just on their own as a toteable breakfast!
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup pecans
1 cup buckwheat groaties
1 cup walnuts
2 tablespoons chia seeds
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla powder
1/4 teaspoon of salt
1/4 cup almond or almond butter
1 large ripe banana, mashed (about 1/2 cup)
1/4 cup coconut oil
Preheat oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4 and line a large baking tray with baking paper.
Add all ingredients to a large mixing bowl. Using a wooden spoon, mix all ingredients until everything is nicely coated. Scoop onto the prepared baking tray and roughly flatten out. You still want to leave a few large chunky pieces.
Place in the oven and cook for 20 minutes, turning halfway. Once nicely browned, remove granola from the oven and allow to cook completely, this will make your clusters hold together better.

Is there anything I can substitute the rolled oats with? My son is GF and can’t have oats. It looks so yummy
Hi Tina, thanks for commenting – buckhwheat groats, puffed quinoa or puffed amaranth all work well for this recipe. We hope you enjoy it!
Thanks for this. This is right up my street ..will be making it very soon.
Hello , what can I substitute for the buckwheat groaties? They are not available where I live. Thank you 😊

Hey Antoibette! You can substitute the buckwheat groats with oat groats, it’ll taste a little different but still delish! Enjoy! xx The IQS Team
