Healthy granola in air fryer

Did you know that you can prepare your granola in air fryer, and get the tastiest, crispiest result without large amounts of added sugar and fat?

Most people who have heard of an air fryer know that they can be used to make crispy fries – without deep frying. But the machine is also ideal for other dishes, where the hot air cooks the food to perfection. This applies to meat, fish and vegetables – and even cake and breakfast.

Using an air fryer to make granola is both faster and easier. The cooking time is short, and the result is a crunchy, crispy granola.

Sugar-free granola

When you buy granola in supermarkets, you can often be surprised by the large amounts of sugar and fat it contains. Some varieties are almost like crumbled cookies if you look at the ingredient list. Delicious – no doubt – but for an everyday breakfast it can be good to have a healthier alternative.

If you want to make a healthier granola without large amounts of sugar and fat, it is recommended to use applesauce to combine the ingredients. The applesauce sweetens slightly and gives a lumpy consistency, which can otherwise be difficult to achieve without large amounts of sugar and fat.

In this recipe for granola in the air fryer, 2 tablespoons of oil and honey are added. This is a very small amount for a large portion of granola that will last for many days.
