Recipe: Coco-Nutty Granola and Chocolate Granola Clusters (low sugar)

Breakfast and Brunch
COCO-NUTTY GRANOLA
"The brown rice syrup in this recipe is optional - I personally don't sweeten my granola at all. Perhaps make half a batch with the syrup, half without, and see what you like. I like to eat this granola with yogurt - nice and chunky."



3 cups unsweetened coconut fakes
2 cups almonds, cashews, pecans, walnuts, pumpkin seeds (preferably sprouted), roughly chopped (you can use either one type or a mixture)
2 tablespoons chia seeds
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
5 to 7 tablespoons coconut oil or butter, melted
3 tablespoons brown rice syrup (optional)

Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F and line a baking tray with baking paper.

Combine all the ingredients, then spread evenly on the tray.

Bake for 15-20 minutes, until golden, turning halfway through the cooking time. I like to bake mine until quite dark - the darker it is, the crunchier. Remove from the oven and allow to cool, then eat while it's still crispy.

VARIATIONS:

WITH OATS:
If you wish to add rolled oats, toss 2 cups into the bowl with the rest of the ingredients, and add a little more oil and syrup.

CHOCOLATE GRANOLA CLUSTERS:
Mix in 1/2 cup raw cacao powder and 2 tablespoons cacao nibs with the rest of the ingredients before baking. Place the clusters on top of coconut yogurt as a dessert!

Makes 5 cups
