This incredible Paleo Mulberry Granola recipe is grain-free and purely fruit-sweetened. This healthy breakfast recipe is super easy to make and can be whipped up in no time flat. All you need is 7 ingredients –walnuts, mulberries, dried apricots, dates, cinnamon, salt, and water.
Paleo Mulberry Granola is a fantastic breakfast paired with my dairy-free Almond Milk. Or, if you’re in a time crunch, serve it with a splash of coconut milk. Either way, we love to top it with fresh berries. This gluten-free granola also makes a wonderful paleo snack for children and adults. Sometimes I eat it after dinner for dessert. It’s that good!

Does anyone have suggestions on nut substitutions? My family is allergic to walnuts, pistachios and cashews. Thanks!

I didn’t know you could eat mulberries. There are none available here. Any suggestions for substitutes?
Elana says
Sue, I buy my dried mulberries online. If you click the green text in the ingredients portion of the recipe you will be taken to a page that provides more information on this ingredient.
Louise Baker says
I don’t know what mulberries are — does anyone know of something else I could substitute that would give a comparable flavour and texture? Thanks.
Elana says
Louise, you can order mulberries online. Just click the green text that says “mulberries” in the ingredients portion of the recipe for more info :-)

Thanks so much for this recipe. I just got this out of the dehydrator and it is delicious! I am soaking my walnuts for my next batch. I don’t think it is going to last long here. I have been craving a GF, vegan granola. Yeah! Thanks for sharing all your wonderful discoveries with us. Such a blessing.

This looks WONDERFUL! I love that it doesn’t contain oatmeal, since I can’t eat even the gluten-free kind.
