Here's a great Paleo granola recipe that I found while perusing some of the Paleo recipe sites. It's a good alternative to the traditional granolas out there, most of which are filled with sugar and not a whole lot of much else. Enjoy!
- 5 cups nuts and seeds (pumpkin seeds, flax seeds, pecans, and sunflower seeds; you can use whatever you want, but make sure you use at least 2 – 3 cups slivered almonds, as these take the place of what is normally oats)
- 1/3 cup honey (or maple syrup or any other Paleo-approved sweetener)
- 1/3 cup Paleo-friendly oil ( coconut works well)
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp nutmeg
- 1 cup raisins
- 1 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
Mix honey, oil, vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg in a small saucepan and bring to a boil on the stove. Let it cool. Spread the nuts and seeds out on a greased baking sheet and pour the cooled honey mixture over the top. Mix it around to get everything covered, and bake for 30 minutes at 300 degrees. Allow the pan to cool slightly and then put the mixture into a bowl. Mix in raisins and coconut, and enjoy!
