Super Funking Easy Granola

I dont believe that food should come in a package. If it comes in a package, then its not really food.

Here’s a recipe for some delicious and nutritious vegan gluten free deliciously sexy super yummy for your tummy granola…

Start by making some nut juice, nut milk, whatever you want to call it.

The general ratio is for every 1 cup of nuts you want about 2 cups of water. Blend together with a pinch of pink salt, vanilla extract and agave syrup.

I usually use brazil nuts because they contain no enzyme inhibitors. If you are using other kinds of nuts, soak them for about 6 to 8 hours before using. They are easier to digest and more nutritious that way.

Strain nuts through an amazing nut milk bag. Save the leftover pulp rom the bag to make your granola. If you are not making granola immediately, freeze the pulp.

The granola follows the same ratio as the nut milk. For every 2 cups of dry ingredients you need about 1 cup of wet. Depending on your personal taste preferences and nutritional needs, you can use any combinations of the following:

Dry: 1 cup Rolled oats, 1/2 cup quinoa flakes, nuts, seeds, leftover nut pulp, rice flour, 1 tsp cinnamon, 1 tsp ginger
Wet: 1/2 cup oil (I use coconut), 1/2 cup maple syrup or agave syrup, 1 tsp vanilla extract
(For lower fat granola use hot water instead of oil)

Combine dry and wet ingredients separately, then mix together. Spread on lightly oiled baking sheet. Bake for about 20 minutes or until golden brown, stirring occasionally. When finished baking, add in dried fruits or coconut if desired.
Serve warm with fresh fruit and milk, or let dry in oven overnight before storing in an airtight container.
