A modified version of my Healthy Granola Mix, I was trying to achieve a gluten-free, low glycemic version of the granola we love to eat. Made with gluten-free oats, nuts, and seeds, this version contains no fruit. Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups gluten-free rolled oats |
2 tablespoons sesame seeds |
4 tablespoons golden flax seeds |
4 tablespoons chia seeds |
1 cup pepitas (pumpkin seeds) |
3/4 cup chopped pecans |
3/4 cup chopped blanched almond |
1/4 cup organic grapeseed oil (or coconut oil, or canola oil) |
1/4 cup organic blue agave nectar |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 140 C / 275°F
2. Mix together the oats, seeds and nuts in a bowl.
3. Heat the oil and agave nectar in a large pan until warm and well blended. Remove the pan from heat.
4. Add the oat mixture to the pan and stir well.
5. Spread out on one or two baking sheets.
6. Bake for about 40-50 minutes until crispy, stirring occationally to prevent the mixture from sticking.
7. Remove from the oven and cool; store in airtight containers.
8. SUBSTITUTIONS: Try a variety of nuts, grains, seeds in this recipe, depending on your individual preferences.
9. SERVING TIPS: Serve the granola layered in glass bowls with fresh fruit and yogurt.
