My son told me it's just "seeds and nuts put together" and that I call it granola. But since this particular son is all about being gluten free this time in his life, he's jumping on board. It's quite simple and delicious.
GLUTEN FREE GRANOLA
1/4 c. coconut oil
1/4 c. honey
1 tsp vanilla
1 c. pecans
1 c. walnuts
1 c. pepitas or pumpkin seeds
1 c. sunflower seeds
1 c. unsweetened, unsulphured coconut flakes
1 tsp cinnamon (or to taste)
pinch of salt
(actually, you can use any nuts and seeds of your choice)
Melt coconut oil, honey and vanilla in a saucepan. Don't overheat.
Add rest of ingredients in a bowl, add melted oil and honey and mix until well coated.
Place on a jelly roll pan lined with parchment paper and bake at 300-325 degrees for 30 minutes.
Stir after the first 15 minutes. Watch carefully as not to get too brown.
I have to bake mine at 300 degrees.
When finished top with milk, or my favorite greek yogurt.
It's a great high protein snack that will keep you satisfied. Enjoy!
