Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 C rolled oats
  • 1/2 C white quinoa uncooked
  • 1/2 C Almonds roughly chopped
  • 2 tbsp maca powder
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/3 C coconut oil
  • 1/2 C almond butter
  • 1/4 C honey
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180C and line a baking tray with paper and set aside.
  • Combine the dry ingredients in a medium mixing bowl and set aside
  • Melt the coconut oil in a frying pan. Once melted turn off the stove and add in the almond butter, honey and vanilla. Combine until fully mixed (if it’s too hard, heat it up)
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix. Make sure the granola is fully coated.
  • Spread the granola in an even thin layer on the lined baking tray. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until the edges are golden brown and you can smell the granola toasting. Turn the pan around halfway through. Do not touch the granola.
  • Allow to cool on a wire rack. Once cooled, break the granola into large clumps.
  • Store in an airtight jar at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
