It’s perfect for breakfast with yogurt and fruit, and perfect on-the-go too. This Pesach Granola is that wholesome crunch you’re craving.
BCP runs a content chat called…New Content (super original name!) During and after every occasion/Yom Tov we discuss what recipes we tried, ideas we are missing, hacks we used. The following year we review the year before and that’s pretty much our base of all the posts we post. Last year Pesach I wrote on a BCP chat, “Did anyone see a good Pesach granola recipe?” I received a lot of responses and links. Some of them had matzah farfel, others used quinoa. However none of those ingredients are ingredients my family uses for Pesach.
During this year’s content chat, we discussed how popular our Nut Free Granola was. Our editor Victoria also said she thinks we should definitely use almond flour in the base of our granola like in the Best Pesach Apple Crumble. Using those ideas and recipes as inspiration, I pretty much had an idea of what I was going to put into my granola.
However, as I was putting it together, Esti, our photographer, mentioned that she thinks it needs something to bind it together, like an egg white (Brilliant Esti! You should write more recipes!) and so, combining everyone’s suggestions (who said too many cooks spoil the soup?) the most addictive Pesach granola (perfect for everyone and definitely for those who use limited ingredients) was born!
Combine all the ingredients on a baking sheet.
Mix to form crumbs. BTW, Esti also suggested adding coconut flakes to the granola. However, since I was writing and eating the recipe and I do not like coconut, that suggestion wasn’t incorporated. However if you do like coconut and add it to your granola leave a comment and she will very pleased!
Bake until nice and golden brown.
You’ll see it has the perfect crunch.
Keep it in the freezer in a Ziploc…
Or leave it in an airtight container on the counter!
Serve this granola with yogurt, fruit, over ice cream, or just as a snack as-is!
Additional subs if needed:
Don’t use pecans? Replace it with more almonds or walnuts.

Does anyone know if this can be made in a Betty Crocker?
I didn’t try this particular recipe yet, but I dont see why not. Just make sure to mix often and keep in mind its gonna be ready much much faster. (This from my experience using Betty crocker for almost everything.)
you guys are awesome!
sounds amazing!
WHAT CAN I SUBSTITUTE FOR THE HONEY
Maple syrup?
We tested it out without honey and added instructions in the recipe!
Is vanilla sugar a must?
Can I leave out the egg white?
