Vanilla Granola with Quinoa and Chia Seeds
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cups steel-cut oats
- 1/3 cups quinoa (uncooked)
- 1/8 cups chia seeds
- 1/2 cups walnuts (roughly chopped)
- 1/8 cups peanuts (unsalted)
- 1/4 cups coconut (flaked, unsweetened)
- 1/4 cups dried cranberries
- dash salt
- 1/8 cups vanilla extract
- 1/4 cups maple syrup
- 1/4 cups avocado oil
- 1/8 cups dark brown sugar (optional)
Directions
In a large bowl, mix together oats, quinoa, chia seeds, nuts, coconut, cranberries and salt until evenly distributed. Add the remaining ingredients and stir until all dry ingredients are well coated. Line a jelly roll pan with parchment paper. Spread the mixture evenly over the pan, pressing down slightly. Bake at 300 for 40-60 minutes or until golden, stirring occasionally to allow for even toasting. Allow to cool completely, then break up any large chunks (to your preference) and transfer to an airtight container. |
