This is a vegan granola recipe with added protein from hemp powder and flax seeds. It's a basic recipe with lots of room for alterations and additions- you can add different chopped nuts, dried fruits, and other seasonings like ground clove or ginger. I usually add more hemp powder, as I hardly notice the flavor. Ingredients:
1/3 cup brown sugar |
1/4 cup applesauce |
1/4 cup ground flax seeds |
1/4 cup ground hemp seeds |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/4 teaspoon almond extract |
2 teaspoons maple syrup (or honey or agave nectar) |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg |
1/2 cup sunflower seeds |
1/2 cup pumpkin seeds |
5 cups old fashioned oats, uncooked |
2/3 cup dried fruit (raisins, cranberries, cherries) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
2. Combine all ingredients except the dried fruits.
3. Spread onto baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes, until the granola along the edges of the sheet starts to toast.
4. Use a spatula to move the toasted granola away from the edge and re-spread the mix in the pan.
5. Bake for another 8-10 minutes, or until toasted to your taste.
6. Add dried fruit.
