Recipe Card
ingredients
- 1 cups soft dates
- 1/2 cups tahini
- 1/4 cups water
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 3 cups old fashioned oats
- 1 cups nuts
- 1/2 cups dried cranberries
- 1/4 cups sunflower seeds
- 1/4 cups pumpkin seeds
- 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoons salt
Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 300°F.
Step 2
To a food processor, add the wet ingredients (dates, tahini, water, and maple syrup). Blend until a smooth paste forms.
Step 3
Add all the dry ingredients to a large mixing bowl and then mix in the date mixture. I usually use my hands to coat everything evenly.
Step 4
Spread out the mixture on to a parchment or silicone lined baking sheet.
Step 5
Bake for 25-30 minutes. Take it out after about 15 minutes to give it a mix on the pan to make sure it cooks evenly. Granola is done when it is slightly golden.
Step 6
Let the granola cool completely on the baking sheet. Once cooled, place in an airtight container. You can store this in your pantry or on your counter for a couple of weeks.
Step 7
Serve with milk or yogurt with some fresh berries.
