Συχνές ερωτήσεις
Here my answers to your common questions about this recipe:
In most recipes, you can swap one by the other but watch out! Steel-cut oats have way more proteins and fiber; therefore, the ratio of dry to liquid ingredients in your recipe will change. You will need way more liquid in oatmeal, for example, or way more steel-cut oats in a granola recipe because it has a smaller cut than rolled oats.
Steel-cut oats are the most nutritious version of oats. It’s made from raw, uncooked oat groats pulsed into small pieces. Compared to rolled oats that are steamed and rolled, steel-cut oats have more proteins and fiber, particularly beta-glucans, a soluble fiber that improves heart function.
Yes, but the best is to use a combination of both rolled oats and steel cut oats to keep texture and form clusters.
Yes, you can, but it will absorb a lot of liquid and, as a result, you need to add more oil or maple syrup to bring the ingredients together.

Tried substituting with honey and it stuck to my baking sheet despite letting it cool down for more time can anyone please enlighten me as how to avoid this next time and thank you in advance
Did you cover the baking sheet with parchment paper as mentioned per recipe?
Yes sorry meant to say it stuck to my parchment paper
It’s an issue with with the parchment paper. Simply spray oil spray on yours, but a good quality non stick paper doesn’t stick with a recipe like this.
Love this recipe. It comes together quickly, is highly adaptable, but just great as is. Thanks for this recipe!
Σας ευχαριστώ πάρα πολύ!
Certainly gives a god jaw workout the same time. Usually I soak my pinhead oats overnight which I may try next time. I substituted the maple syrup for honey and omitted the oil
Great recipe! I changed it a bit. Instead of avocado oil I used double amount of almond butter (6Tbs.) Instead of maple syrup I used date syrup (a little over 1/4 c.) I added 1/3 c. date sweetened chocolate chips. It made a lot! I was wondering, do you think that 1/2 of this granola could be freezed?
Yes, you can freeze up to 1 month in airtight zip lock bags. Thaw at room temperature before using.
Can u use honey instead of maple syrup ?
I love all the substitutions you provide / and explanations of why tuff combinations “ work”
except that when you cook honey, it sticks in your guts like glue! better to always add to sweeten after the fact and not before cooking
Yes sure, honey will work very well too.
Absolutely love this. So delicious.
I substituted the maple syrup for honey and added chopped dates,clustered beautifully
I haven’t made this yet but it looks and sounds delicious. I was just wondering if there was a substitute for the maple syrup. I have a ton of oats and everything else but I’m out of maple syrup. Would coconut sugar or plain white sugar work?
The thing is, the liquid sweetener stick to the cereals and form clusters as it cool down. If you use sugar, it will taste good, but it won’t stick and cluster.
