β Silken Tofu Puree (Best Fat-Free Option)
1:1 (1/4 cup silken tofu puree per 1/4 cup heavy cream)Silken tofu, when pureed, offers a creamy texture and moisture that can substitute for heavy creamβs binding properties in granola. It is low in fat but high in protein, which helps with structure.
Use smooth, well-blended tofu to avoid lumps. Because tofu is lower in fat, consider adding a small amount of oil to compensate for richness.
The final granola will be less crispy and more dense than with heavy cream, with a mild beany flavor that can be masked with spices or sweeteners.
