Healthy Seedy Granola
Quick and easy baked granola with 6 different seeds, nut butter and maple syrup or agave.
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 ½ tbsp sunflower seed butter, or any nut butter
- ¼ cup + 2 tbsp maple syrup or agave
- 2 tbsp sunflower seeds
- 2 tbsp pumpkin seeds
- 2 tbsp flax seeds or flax meal
- ½ tbsp poppyseeds
- ½ tbsp chia seeds
- pinch black and/or white sesame seeds
- pinch sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375ºF and set oven racks to the middle. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray the baking sheet with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, mix together the oats, salt and all the seeds except for the sesame. Make sure everything is evenly distributed.
- If the nut butter you're using is really stiff, microwave for 15-20s. Add the nut butter into the dry mix. Using two forks, mix until the nut butter is evenly incorporated in the oats and seeds. Make sure there are no chunks of nut butter. Pour in the maple syrup or agave and mix everything together.
- Transfer the granola mix onto the baking sheet. Distribute the granola evenly on the baking sheet and gently flatten the granola. The granola will not come out as a sheet (like granola bar), but we still want it to bake evenly. Sprinkle on the sesame seeds.
- Bake for 12-15mins. Remove the granola from the oven and give it a little mix. Allow the granola to cool in the pan for 15mins before transfering to a container to store.
- Serve with your favourite yogurt or eat by the handful!
Notes
- Store the granola in a container or ziplock bag in an air dry place for up to 3 weeks. No need to store in the refrigerator.
- If your oven has a tendency to bake things unevenly, turn the pan 180º halfway through baking.
