Granola


We love granola in our home! We use it as a topping for yogurt, a dip for bananas, cereal, or just as a snack.

Everyone knows we need fiber in our diet to keep our bowels and intestines healthy and fully functioning - granola helps with just that!

Here's our favorite recipe:

5 cups rolled oats
1 cup wheat germ
1 cup slivered almonds
1 cup (non-sweetened) coconut
1 cup cranberries
1/2 golden flax seeds
1/4 hemp seeds

3/4 cup honey
1/2 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup water

Blend dry ingredients together. In a seperate bowl blend liquid ingredients with whisk (or such) until ingredients blend together. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir. Dehydrate at 155 for a couple hours or until desired crispiness. Or you can place in oven at 170 for an hour or two as well.
