PALEO GRANOLA (+ VIDEO)

Gluten free, grain-free, refined sugar-free paleo granola. This simple recipe incorporates nuts and seeds, plus – bonus points – you end up with huge granola clusters!

Do you ever get such a massive hankering for something crunchy that it can’t be contained, quenched, or satisfied with anything other than granola?

This happens to me regularly. I go about my business eating my veggies and rice and salmon on a weekly basis, then all of a sudden, BOOM! Mega need for something hard to chew on.

INGREDIENTS

• 1 egg white lightly beaten, see note*
• 2 tablespoons water see note*
• 2 cups raw walnuts
• 2 cup raw cashews
• 1 cup raw pumpkin seeds pepitas
• 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
• 1 cup dried cranberries see note**
• 3 tablespoons grapeseed oil see note***
• 1/3 cup pure maple syrup or honey****
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ½ teaspoon kosher salt

INSTRUCTIONS

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Whisk together the egg white with the water until bubbly and slightly foamy in a small bowl.
• Add all ingredients, including the egg white/water mixture EXCEPT for the cranberries to a food processor. Pulse until well chopped and combined, but leave mixture nice and chunky.
• Spread the granola mixture evenly on the parchment-lined baking sheet into an even layer and bake for 20 to 30 minutes or until golden-brown and crispy.
• Remove granola from the oven and allow it to sit at least 20 minutes without stirring it – this is where the clustering happens, so be sure to not skip this step!!
