Calling all Crumbleheads – those that love granola – who enjoy exploring new inventive granola-eating ways! Our snackateers at the Uncle Crumbles granolaboratory have been hard at work developing new ways to enjoy our all-natural, gluten-free granola. After hours of blending, testing, and sampling, we’re proud to unveil a DIY Cran-Maple granola spread that would make Uncle Crumbles proud.
It all starts with the granola you use. Some opt for the homemade approach to their granola (as granola makers ourselves, we support this), but sometimes that requires a hefty time commitment, which, who’s got time for that when juggling work, school, extracurricular activities, and meal prep. It’s simply best to let us handle the granola-ing so you can get straight to the snacking.
Our Cran-Maple Crunch granola is a delightful blend of crunch and sweetness, and a wholesome treat that elevates ANY snack game, thanks to real maple syrup, tart dried cranberries, and clusters of whole grain oats, corn cups, and rice crisps. As a gluten-free treat (like all of our granola) this is the perfect base for our granola spread to accommodate a variety of dietary lifestyles!
Aside from using Uncle Crumbles granola, the only other ingredients needed are 2–3 tablespoons of coconut oil, a food processor or high-speed blender, and about 5 minutes of prep time before you’re enjoying this granola spread on toast, waffles, assorted fruit, or even by the spoonful on its own.
Check out the simple recipe below and be sure to stock up on all of our ingenious, all-natural granola to try this method with a variety of flavors!
