Breakfast
Granola is one of the UK's most-loved cereal options. But, surprisingly, it is also one of the unhealthiest. So do not be fooled, Primal friends! Whilst granola may appear healthy with clever labelling, stating 'oats', nuts and fibre', it's actually packed full of sugar, saturated fats and CARBS. So no, despite popular opinion, it's not the healthiest option first thing in the morning! For our nut n' clusters Primal granola recipe we've simply swapped out the oats for almond flour, replaced sugar with raw honey, and combined everything with our favourite, healthy brain-boosting nuts - pecans, walnuts and pecans. The combination of the nuts, raw honey and almond flour are what allow the clusters to form. In fact, without the almond flour, the clusters wouldn't exist so please do not miss this essential ingredient!
Ingredients
Granola
- Almond (65 grams)
- Brazil nuts (60 grams)
- Pecans (60 grams)
- Flaked almonds (80 grams)
- Almond flour (55 grams)
- Salt (1 pinch)
- Cinnamon (1 tsp)
- Ground ginger (1/2 tsp)
- Raw honey (1/4 cup)
- Vanilla pod
- Coconut sugar (1 tbsp)
Method
Begin by preheating your oven to gas mark 3 (160 degrees Celcuis).
In a bowl, add all of your ingredients together and mix (slowly) until clusters start to form together. Be sure not to over mix as this will break up the clusters.
Once your clusters have formed, line a baking tray with parchment paper and lay out your granola.
Pop in the middle of the oven to bake for 15 minutes (or until golden and crunchy), remove from the oven and leave to cool.
Serve with some milk (or milk of choice) or enjoy as a simple nutty snack! This granola is best kept in an airtight container for up to a week.
