CRUNCHY SUGAR-FREE GRANOLA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

• Beat egg whites in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl until stiff peaks form. Beat in vanilla extract. Fold egg whites into the oat mixture. Spread on the prepared baking sheet.

THE ORIGINAL SUGAR-FREE KETO GRANOLA RECIPE

Steps:

• Place all the coconuts, seeds and nuts in a large roasting or baking dish with high sides.
• Melt the coconut oil and add the cinnamon and ginger. Add sweetener if required. This is completely optional and may be a useful addition for beginners.
• Pour over the grain-free granola mix and mix thoroughly with a large spoon or spatula. Make sure everything has a fine coating of the oil and spices.
• Bake at 180C / 350F for 20 minutes.
• The mixture can burn very easily so I turn the mixture with the large spoon every 3 minutes.
• Allow to cool thoroughly and place in airtight containers.

SUGAR FREE GRANOLA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F.
• Mix together in a large bowl the oats and coconut till incorporated.
• In separate bowl mix together melted butter, sugar free honey, vanilla, cinnamon and salt.
• Pour honey mixture over dry ingredients and mix thoroughly. (if your going to add nuts, add them at this time).
• Spread mixture evenly onto a large cookie sheet that has shallow sides. (make sure the mix is spread evenly and goes to the sides all the way around.
• Bake for 15 minutes in oven. You want to bake the mixture till it gets golden brown all over. The sides will start to darken before the middle.
• After 15 minutes take out of oven and stir well. put back in oven and watch carefully as it will darken fast. I generally cook mine about 20-25 minutes.
• Take out of oven when the granola is golden brown. The mixture will appear wet and you will think it's not done, but as the granola cools it gets crunchy.
• While the mixture is cooling on the baking sheet, I add the 2 cups of dried fruit and mix it well. The heat will help the fruit release some of it's natural flavors without drying it out. I have tried baking the granola with the fruit and found cranberries especially get a little too hard.
• After about an hour the granola will be crunchy and ready to eat! I love to sprinkle on the top of my yogurt, eat as a cereal or just eat plain out of the bag!
• Since you can use so many different types of dried fruit, the combination are endless. My son likes to add M&M's to his, but then it's not so sugar free, but it's still good!
