Mix the ingredients, bake in the oven, and it’s ready in under 15 minutes!
Crunchy and delicious, it’s a great alternative to store-bought granola.

Recipe Ingredients

You’ll need the following ingredients to make this Homemade Matcha Granola:

Rolled oats: I recommend old-fashioned rolled oats for their enjoyable texture.
Nuts and dry fruits: Choose your favorites. In this recipe, I use almonds, walnuts, raisins, and cranberries. Other options include pecans, cashews, goji berries, figs, dates, and more.
Matcha powder is graded according to quality. While ceremonial-grade matcha is used for traditional tea ceremonies, culinary-grade matcha is a good choice for making matcha latte and dessert at an affordable price. Please note that some other types of matcha powder contain sugar.
Oil: You can use any oil that does not have a strong smell or flavor, such as light vegetable oil.
Maple syrup: Honey or agave syrup can be used as a substitute.

How To Make Matcha Granola: STEP BY STEP

Here are some quick visual instructions! For the video and all the detailed ingredients and instructions, go to the printable recipe card below.

Step 1

Chop nuts into small pieces.

Step 2

Mix ingredients except for dry fruits.

Step 3

Spread the granola on a silicone baking mat and bake for 10 minutes at 180C.

Once it’s cooled, transfer it to a container and mix it with dried fruits. Enjoy it over yogurt for breakfast or snacks!

Recipe Tips

If your oven doesn’t heat evenly, bake for 5 minutes, then rotate the baking tray 180 degrees and bake for the remaining 5 minutes. This will ensure more even baking without burning the granola.
Using an airtight container is convenient when mixing dry fruits. Close the lid tightly and shake the container well.

Storage

Homemade matcha granola will last for a couple of months at room temperature. (But I’m sure it will be gone within a couple of weeks!)
