Ingredients:
2 cups old fashioned oats 1/3 cup craisins (or dried fruit of choice) 1/4 cup raw sunflower seeds 1/2 cup almonds, crushed 3 tbsp. raw honey 2 tbsp. coconut oil, liquid (I use Trader Joe’s) 1/2 tsp. almond extract (or vanilla) 1 tbsp. ground cinnamon 1/8 tsp. nutmeg 1/8 tsp. ginger Pinch of sea salt Directions: Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. In a large mixing bowl combine oats, nuts, seeds, and seasonings. In a separate bowl combine the coconut oil, extract, and honey and stir very well. Slowly combine the oil mixture into the oats bowl. If necessary, use your hands to thoroughly mix the ingredients. Make sure that the oats are coated with the oil mixture. Place the oats onto a cookie sheet, lined with parchment paper, into a very thin layer and bake anywhere between 25-35 minutes. Check the granola every 15 minutes to see if its done and to stir it. The granola should be lightly toasted. Baking time will vary depending on climate and oven used. Enjoy! Nutrition Servings: 8 170 calories 10.3g fat 26.3g carbs 4.8g protein 10.3g sugar |
