Ingredients
The Granola
- 1 cup almonds
- 1 cup walnuts
- 1 cup flakey coconut
- ½ cup cashews
- ½ cup sliced almonds
- ½ cup pumpkin seeds
- ⅓ cup macadamia nuts
- 1 cup puffed quinoa
Cinnamon Maple Coating
- 1 cup coconut oil
- ¼ cup almond butter
- ½ cup maple syrup
- 2 tbsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp sea salt sprinkle more on top before/after the oven
- 2 tsp vanilla
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Start by combing all your nuts and seeds together in one large bowl
- In a small sauce pan over medium heat add your coconut oil, almond butter, sea salt, and half of your cinnamon. Allow this to simmer together for 5 minutes! When it is off the heat, add the rest of the cinnamon to deepen the flavour, and your maple syrup as well as your vanilla!
- Pour the cinnamon maple coating over your bowl of nuts and seeds and mix until it’s fully coated!
- Line a baking sheet and spread this out evenly, I always add a dash of sea salt on top
- Bake in the oven for 15 minutes until just golden brown! Always checking it because it burns easily, I check every 5 minutes! Store in freezer for best keeping!
