Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Cover a cookie sheet with wax paper. Put 1 tsp of melted coconut oil onto the wax paper. I used a silicone basting brush to evenly spread the coconut oil on the wax paper.
  • In a large bowl, mix 1Tbs coconut flour, 3/4 cup of almond flour, 2 Tbs ground flax seeds, 2 Tbs ground chia seeds, 1/4 cup of crushed almonds, 1/2 cup of diced fresh strawberries, 1/2 cup of raisins, 1 tsp cinnamon, and 1/4 tsp nutmeg together with a fork.
  • In a small bowl, whisk 1 egg, 2 tsp of melted coconut oil, 3 Tbs of maple syrup and 1 tsp of vanilla together.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ones and mix until everything is wet.
  • Using a 1/4 cup sized measuring cup, scoop up the mixture and place 1/4 cup sized balls of the mixture onto a pan close to one another.
  • Press down onto the balls of batter with the back of a metal spoon. Spread the batter across the pan with the back of a spoon, then tilt the spoon sideways to separate chunks of the batter apart.
  • Put the pan into the oven.
  • Take the pan out every 5 minutes, and using a spatula, move the granola around, making sure that there is none that sticks to the bottom of the pan. This also ensures that the granola cooks evenly.
  • Repeat this step 4 times. (It will have cooked for a total of 20 minutes at this point).
  • Check to make sure the granola is as hard as you want it. I proceeded to cook the granola for 3 more minutes.
  • Let the granola cool.
