Protein Granola and Bars

GF, DF, V AND RSF

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup of buckwheat kernals

  • 1/2 cup of rolled oats

  • 1/4 cup of sunflower seeds

  • 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds

  • 2 tbsp linseeds

  • 1 cup of chopped nuts

  • Pinch of Himalayan salt

  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon

  • 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract

  • 1/2 cup of honey/maple syrup

  • 1/2 cup of melted coconut oil

  • 2 tbsp of wholefood vanilla protein powder (optional)

Method:

  1. Pre heat oven to 180 degrees C and line a baking tray with baking paper (for granola) or grease a silicon mould (for bars, I used mini loaf moulds).

  2. In a large bowl add all dry ingredients giving it a real good mix.

  3. Now add all wet ingredients and stir. The mixture should be well coated with the wet ingredients and slightly sticky. This will allow it to set nicely once cooled.

  4. Now with wet finger tips, press the mixture into the base of the moulds if making the granola bars. You want them to be around 1.5 cm thick. If making granola simply spread the mixture out onto the baking paper.

  5. Place in oven and bake for 15 mins or until golden.

  6. Remove from oven and leave to cool completely.

  7. Store in an airtight container..
