Paleo Granola!



Delicious Paleo Granola

Oh goodness, where do I start? I am so so sorry I haven't posted anything in TWO months! We started the Paleo Challenge again this month so baking has been a little halted ;) After finding all sorts of paleo recipes on Pinterest and different blogs we decided to give paleo granola a try! 



Ingredients List

Wet: 
  • 2 heaping tablespoons of coconut oil 
  • 1/4 cup of water 

  • 1/4 cup of honey 
Dry:

  • 1/2 cup of flaxseed meal (ground flaxseeds) 
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds 
  • 3/4 - 1 cup of slivered almonds 
  • Vitamin powder (I used Vega One french vanilla) 
  • 1/2 cup shredded coconut 
  • 2 handfuls chopped mixed nuts 
  • optionals: 2 tablespoons nut butter, chopped dates, raisins, chopped fresh fruit or dried fruit, cocoa
  • The dry ingredients depend on what flavor you want, my mom added 1 cup of chopped apples, 1/2 cup of apple sauce, a few chopped dates, and goji berries to this recipe to give it a fruitier flavor!  

First combine the oil, honey, and water and melt. 
In a medium bowl combine the dry ingredients. 




Add the melted oil mixture to the dry igredients. 






Now line a jelly roll pan with aluminum foil and spray the foil. Press the granola thinly across the pan.
Put in the oven at 250 for 1 1/2 hours, checking often to stir. Take out when cirspy.  Best served at room temperature.
