This healthy granola is lightly sweetened, using whipped egg white or aquafaba for a crunchy texture instead of extra oil. It’s a versatile base that can be customized with your favorite nuts, seeds, dried fruits, or spices. A sugar-free version with erythritol is also possible, making it perfect for a guilt-free snack. Golden and crisp, it pairs wonderfully with yogurt, milk, or fruit bowls, and keeps fresh for several weeks in an airtight container.

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 170°C (340°F) fan / 190°C (375°F) conventional.

Roughly chop the nuts and mix them with wheat bran, rolled oats, flaxseed, and cinnamon in a large bowl.

Whip the egg white (or aquafaba) in a separate bowl until stiff peaks form.

Stir the agave syrup and coconut oil into the dry ingredients, then gently fold in the whipped egg white.

Spread the granola mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, smoothing it as evenly as possible. Roast in the oven for 10 minutes, then flip with a spatula and bake for another 8–10 minutes until golden brown.

Remove the granola from the oven, let it cool completely, and then transfer it to an airtight container for storage.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Whip Egg White Magic 🥚
Whip the egg white to soft peaks before mixing with dry ingredients to create maximum crispiness and ensure even coating of the granola mixture.
Low and Slow Baking 🌡️
Bake granola at 300°F (150°C) and stir every 10-15 minutes to prevent burning and achieve uniform golden-brown color without scorching nuts or seeds.
Custom Nut Chopping Technique 🔪
Roughly chop mixed nuts by hand instead of using a food processor to maintain varied textures and prevent over-processing, which can lead to powdery granola.
Moisture Control Trick 💧
Let granola cool completely on the baking sheet before storing to prevent condensation, which can make your granola lose its signature crunch.
Flavor Layering Hack 🌿
Toast wheat bran and flaxseed separately before mixing to enhance their nutty flavors and activate their nutritional properties before combining with other ingredients.
