Quick Omega 3 Granola Food

5-MINUTE GRANOLA

Steps:

• Add the oats, almonds and coconut to a dry nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Toast in the skillet, stirring, until they are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Stir in the wheat germ, then pour onto a plate.
• Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. When the butter has melted, add the honey, brown sugar, maple syrup, vanilla and salt. Bring to a boil and let cook, stirring, until it combines into a thin syrup, about 1 minute.
• Add the toasted dry ingredients back to the skillet and stir quickly, keeping the granola from clumping too much, but ensuring the dry ingredients are all coated in the syrup, about 1 minute. Serve warm, or allow to cool for 30 minutes, at which point the granola will become crispier.
• Sprinkle the granola over the cold yogurt and garnish with blueberries.

EASY HEALTHY HOMEMADE GRANOLA RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300º F (177° C). (If your oven runs cool or is older, 325º F also works.)
• Combine the oil and maple syrup (or honey), vanilla extract, and salt in the bottom of a large bowl (mixing bowl is best) and give it a quick stir. The coconut oil might be solid depending on your climate (it has a melting point of about 75ºF), and that's ok! A rough mix to incorporate the vanilla into the coconut oil and sweetener is all you need to do here.
• Add the rest of the dry ingredients, use your clean hands to mix well, and toss it to coat. It will be sticky and messy, but that's the fun part. Your hands will warm the oil and melt it into the mixture if it's solid; just be sure to mix it all through the other ingredients, so there aren't any chunks of oil left.
• Spread the mixture in a thin layer on a rimmed baking sheet or sheet pan lined with parchment paper and bake for 10-12 minutes until very lightly toasted. (To make this recipe completely raw-friendly, dehydrate the mixture 5-6 hours at 115ºF in a food dehydrator instead.)
• Cool 10-15 minutes before serving or storing.
