This granola has become my go to snack or breakfast food. There is always a fresh jar of granola on my counter. After much trial and error I have finally perfected my recipe. I do admit I love to change up the recipe according to tastes that day. I hope you enjoy it as much as my family and I do!
Ingredients:
4 cups of cooking oats
1 cup of sunflower seeds
1 cups of pumpkin seeds
1/2 cup chia seeds
1 cup of ground flax seeds
1- 1 1/2 cups of almonds
3 heaping tbsp of virgin coconut oil
4 tbsp of pure maple syrup
3 tsp of cinnamon
1/2 cup of raisins
1 cup chopped dates
Blend 1 cup of the oats into a fine flour. Pulse the almonds until they are small chunks. Add all of the seeds, flour and oats into a large bowl. In a saucepan add coconut oil, maple syrup and cinnamon. Heat until liquid. Pour onto the seeds, nuts and oats. Mix until dry ingredients are well covered.
Spread onto a baking pan.
Place in the oven. Bake for about an hour at 300 degrees Celsius. Stirring every 15 minutes so it browns evenly.
Add the dates and raisins. Cool. Keep in a jar on the counter. Enjoy! It is delicious mixed with coconut/ almond yogurt, berries, with almond milk or my favourite- topping baked apples!
