Description
Vegan and gluten free almond butter granola makes a great breakfast staple. Lightly sweetened and full of high protein oats and almonds.
Ingredients
- 250 grams (2 cups) rolled oats
- 100 grams (½ cup) chopped or slivered almonds
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 2 teaspoons arrowroot powder
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- 80 grams (⅓ cup) maple syrup
- 60 grams (¼ cup) almond butter
- 3 tablespoons coconut oil softened or melted
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 160°C (320°F) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine the oats, almonds, chia, arrowroot powder, and salt in a large bowl.
- Add the maple syrup, almond butter, coconut oil, and vanilla to the bowl. Mix very well using a spatula or wooden spoon.
- Spread evenly onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring or turning the sheet at the halfway mark if your oven bakes unevenly.
- Cool fully before removing from the sheet and transferring to a jar or container. The granola will keep for a couple of weeks in a sealed container at room temperature.
Notes
• Honey can be substituted for the maple syrup, but will make a sweeter granola.
