Recipe: Homemade Granola – Coconut Almond Crunch Snack Mix

Summary: Toasting the almonds gives them an even nuttier taste. To toast, spread the almonds on a baking sheet in a single layer. Place the almonds in a cold oven, set the temp to 350° F, and bake  for 9-11 minutes. Stir them occasionally and toast  until lightly browned. Cool.

A delicious treat that’s quick to make and no preservatives! Plus almonds make a fabulous snack – they’re cholesterol-free and loaded with protein, fiber and unsaturated fats.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup slivered almonds, toasted
  • 2-1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup flaked coconut
  • 3/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup almond or vegetable oil

  1. Preheat oven to 350° F.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine toasted almonds, oats, coconut, and cinnamon; set aside.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk honey with oil until combined.
  4. Drizzle over honey/oil mixture over almond-oat mixture, toss to mix well.
  5. Bake 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from oven, loosen with spatula, and cool.
