I am a massive granola fan and although shop bought granola is tasty it has a lot of added sugar and preservatives. I recently made the choice to try and decrease the amount of processed foods I am having, I'm not totally cutting everything out I am just attempting to look after myself better.
With that said I decided to attempt to make my own which I personally think tastes better!! It is really easy to make and doesn't take that long to do.
If you would like to try this you will need.......
1/4 Cup of organic coconut oil
1/2 Cup 100% pure maple syrup
2 Cups of rolled oats
1/2 Cup of pumpkin seeds
1/4 Cup of pine seeds
1/4 Cup of sesame seeds
1/4 Cup of chopped nuts
dessicated coconut (as desired)
Pre heat the oven to 170 degrees
Melt coconut oil in a saucepan on a low heat
In a large mixing bowl mix together melted coconut oil with maple syrup before adding oats,nuts and seeds
Pour onto baking tray and spread evenly then bake for 15 minutes
Remove from the oven and add dried fruit if desired
Bake for a further 5 minutes
The base of my recipe was inspired by Niomi Smart
