I want to share with you my gluten-free granola recipe.
It’s super simple to make (because we’re going to do it in the slow cooker) and it’s perfect for the fall season.
I have it for you today because we have entered fall….it’s fall recipe time!
Many packaged granolas contain gluten or other additives.
By the time I’m done reading their labels, quite honestly I’m exhausted.
My homemade granola recipe was not born because I’m so clever.
No, it was born because I follow an amazing blog called, “A Year of Slow Cooking.” Recently, she posted this recipe: Slow Cooker Pumpkin Granola.
My recipe is simply an adaptation of that phenomenal one.
Therefore, many (not all) of the ingredients are the same.
I changed mine up some, but you could use hers or mine or a combination of them both.

Gluten-Free Granola Recipe [Slow Cooked, Perfect for Fall]
Equipment
- slow cooker
Ingredients
- 4 cups gluten-free oats
- 1 cup canned pumpkin organic
- 3/4 cup honey
- 1/2 cup almonds slivered
- 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds raw
- 1 Tbsp pumpkin pie spice ground
- 1 tsp cinnamon ground
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp nutmeg ground
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 cup raisins
- 1/2 cup coconut shredded
Instructions
- Mix together in a mixing bowl all ingredients except for the raisins and coconut.
- Place half of the mixture in one slow cooker, and the other half in another slow cooker.
- Cook on high for about 4 hours, making sure to stir every 30 minutes or so.
- During the last hour, place the raisins in one slow cooker and the coconut in another slow cooker.
- Place on a paper towel to cool completely.
Notes
- If you are not crazy like me with multiple slow cookers, you can just do this in one big slow cooker, adding the raisins/coconut (or one or the other) during that last hour together
- See THIS for slow cooker recommendations
Like Steph mentions, “The honey will be gloppy— just stir the best you can.” <- Also, you can add even more honey if you want it even sweeter.
The first time I made the batch, I only used 1/4 cup.
Ryan thought 3/4 cup would be even better.
I’d gather he might even like it at a whole cup+.
Bonus: a perfect treat for children and as a dessert topping.
Go ahead….time to enjoy.
