Notes

1. Use certified gluten free oats to prevent cross-contamination. Great brands that sell certified gluten free oats include Trader Joe's, Bob's Red Mill, Quaker, and Thrive Market private label. Make sure it says gluten free on the package.
2. You can add any dried fruit, nuts, and seeds. I also like to add shredded unsweetened coconut to my granola.
3. This granola will keep up to 7 days in an air-tight container.

SPECIAL NOTE

Please know that every gluten free flour blend has a different starch to grain ratio. If you use a blend I didn't test, you may need to adjust your moisture levels in your baked goods.
