Description
A homemade pumpkin seed flax granola recipe loaded with healthy ingredients & sweetened with fruit. Perfect for adding to yogurt, smoothies or snacking.
Ingredients
Scale
4 cups whole grain oats – I like Bob’s Red Mill
1 cup pumpkin seeds
1 cup organic raisins
⅓ cup flax seeds
⅔ to 1 cup dried apples
1 tsp of my homemade pumpkin pie spice mix
4 TBSP coconut oil
Utensils:
Instructions
- Mix all ingredients in a large bowl, except the oil. Be sure to evenly coat the granola with the spices.
- Once well coated then stir in melted coconut oil and toss until lightly covering all the granola. It should all get soaked up leaving a very light coating that is barely noticeable. Your granola should never be greasy so start slowly.
- Bake on a baking sheet at 350 degrees for 20 minutes tossing every 5 minutes till golden. Do not let scorch!
- Let cool.
- Store in an air tight container.
Notes
To make your granola stick together, stir together 1/4 cup honey, 1/4 cup of maple syrup, 1/4 cup coconut oil and 1/2 tsp salt. Warm these ingredients for a few seconds to help them mix better!
