Cacao & Turmeric Granola
Cacao & Turmeric Granola
Ingredients
1/2 cup oats
1/2 cup buckwheat kernels
pinch rock salt
1 tsp vanilla
1 scoop of chocolate protein powder ( or vanilla just add more cacao)
1 tbsp cacao powder
1/2 tbsp turmeric
2 tbsp pepitas
1 tbsp chia seeds
1 tbsp hemp seeds
1 tbsp flaxseeds
1/3 cup melted coconut oil
1 tbsp almond butter
1 tbsp maple syrup
1/2-3/4 cup mixed nuts chopped ( I used a mix of walnuts, almonds, cashews, pecans)
Method
Preheat the oven to 170 degrees celsius
Mix all dry ingredients together in a bowl
Microwave wet ingredients and stir together
Mix the wet mix through the dry until thoroughly combined. You can use your hands to make sure
If it feels too wet, add some more buckwheat / oats and if it is too dry add a bit more maple or coconut oil. It should be quite stuck together
Line a baking tray ( or 2 if small) with baking paper
Spread the mix out evenly ( if it is too thick it is harder to cluster so try and make it well spread out)
Bake for 20-30 minutes or until golden ( check at 20 and taste or look to see)
Remove and allow to cool before breaking ( this is key to the clusters forming ! Donβt touch it till itβs cool)
Enjoy
