Paleo Granola


 I am so sick of eating eggs for breakfast. I've never been a big egg-eater anyways, so I commend myself for lasting this long. In an effort to spice things up, I made a trip to the bulk section and got ingredients to make Paleo Granola. I can't tell you how delicious this is.... the cinnamon mixed with the coconut milk (my preference, almond milk is too... nutty) is pure perfection.



Ingredients
  • 1 cup sliced almonds
  • 1 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 1/2 cup pecans, chopped
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil (or other oil)
  • 1/2 cup raw honey
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 cup dried cranberries OR blueberries OR raisins OR whateverthehellyouwant
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
  2. Add all ingredients to a large microwavable bowl, except the fruit.
  3. Mix well. If the honey is thick, heat up in the microwave for about 30 seconds and mix well.
  4. Place on a baking sheet (use parchment paper for easy clean up).
  5. Bake for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally to help it not burn.
  6. When you pull it out of the oven, mix in dried fruit. Let cool.
  7. Consume!! Even eat it with some almond milk or coconut milk.
