Avoiding grains can be a very difficult thing to do!
For me, granola was always something that I enjoyed, especially if it came in the form of a handy little bar shape.
Convenient and tasty, granola is a mainstay for many busy families.
To make these delicious bars you will need the following ingredients ~ - 3 cups of assorted nuts and seeds - 1 cup of chopped, dried, unsweetened fruit (I used apricots and raisins) - 2 cups unsweetened, shredded coconut - 1/4 cup coconut oil - 1/2 sunflower seed (or other nut) butter - 1/2 cup honey - 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract - 1/2 tsp sea salt - 1 tsp cinnamon 1) Layer 9 x 13 pan with parchment paper. 2) Mix nuts and seeds in a bowl. 3) Take out 1 cup and chop into small pieces. 4) Chop remaining nuts and seeds into even smaller pieces. 5) Combine all nuts/seeds with dried fruit and shredded coconut. |
6) Heat in medium saucepan - oil, nut butter, honey, vanilla, salt and cinnamon until bubbling. Remove from heat. 7) Mix wet mixture into nut mixture until thoroughly combined. |
8)Press mixture into pan. Use waxed paper to keep hands from getting sticky. 9) Let sit for 2 hours. 10) Cover and put in freezer for 1 hour. |
11) Lift out of pan using parchment paper. 12) Cut into desired sized bars. 13) Enjoy! For more Paleo recipes, check out these books - |
