While tahini provides a unique nutty flavor, you could try almond butter or cashew butter for a different, but still delicious, result in this granola.

How do I know when the tahini granola is fully baked?

After allowing it to cool completely on the baking sheet, store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature. Refrigeration is not needed for this recipe.

Can I add dried fruit or chocolate chips to this granola?

Yes, you can add dried fruit like cranberries or raisins, or chocolate chips, but it's best to stir them in after the granola has cooled to prevent burning or melting during baking.

How to Prepare Easy Tahini Granola [Vegan]

Preheat your oven to 325ºF. Either line your sheet pan or spray with oil to prep. Set that aside. Into a bowl, add the oats, nuts, seeds, salt, and cinnamon.
In a bowl or small pot, add tahini, maple syrup, and oil. Warm in a microwave or on the stove until blended. Pour over your oat mixture. Stir well.
Spread out on an even layer on your baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes, then stir. I baked for an additional 10 minutes or until golden. Keep a watchful eye because it will burn quickly.
Allow to cool on the baking sheet, then store in your container—no need to refrigerate.
Enjoy with your favorite plant-based milk, over vegan yogurt, or as a snack.
