Tried and True Granola

The Granola I ALWAYS come back to!

It’s been far too long since I’ve posted.. I promise that I will rectify that situation in 2017. Life gets busy doesn’t it? I myself have had an emotional couple of months. I broke up with my partner of 10 years. That in of itself is a blog post which I will definitely get to…

BUT this post is not about breakups, hardships or massive life changes. THIS blog post is about my kickass tried and true vegan granola recipe. I promise you will not be disappointed.

I have been working on different variations of the same recipe now for well over a year and this one hits it out of the park. Crunchy, savoury, a hint of sweet and healthy! I plan on filling my house with this smell and giving the gift of food. Really, how great is that?!

Might I suggest paring this Vegan Granola with my FAVORITE Homemade Cashew Milk?!

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

3 cup gluten free oats
1 cup roughly chopped raw almonds
½ cup chopped raw pecans or raw walnuts
½ cup raisins
½ cup buckwheat groats
½ cup desiccated unsweetened coconut
½ cup sunflower seeds
½ cup pumpkin seeds
2 tbsp hemp seeds
2 tbsp chia seeds
¾ tsp sea salt
1 tsp tsp cinnamon heaping

Wet Ingredients

½ cup maple syrup (my family makes the stuff so I know it's top quality. Don't cheap out on the maple syrup. The good stuff is actually good for you! Full of magnesium, just don't drink it)
½ cup melted coconut oil
¼-½ cup nut butter
1 tsp vanilla

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 325 Degrees.
Mix all dry ingredients.
Melt liquid ingredients in a small saucepan stirring to combine.
Add wet to dry ingredients. Lay out evenly on 1-2 baking sheets and pop it in the oven. After about 20 minutes take a peek.
Give a gentle mix to get less cooked granola a chance to be baked and then pop back in for another 10 min. Keep a close watch. You don't want it to burn! Wait for it to completely cool then put into mason jars.
