¼ Cup Chopped Almonds (either by hand or in food processor)
⅛ Cup Chopped Pecans (optional)
½ Cup Unsweetened Shredded Coconut or Unsweetened Coconut Chips (Chips are my fave!)
¼ Cup Oats
½ Scoop Swansons Vanilla Protein Powder
1 tsp. Vanilla
6 Packets Truvia
3 TBS Coconut Oil
2 TBS Melted Butter, Salted
2-3 tsp. Apple Cider Vinegar
1 TBS Unsweetened Almond Milk (omit this if you are not getting a crunchy consistency)
Instructions
Stir all dry ingredients together then stir in all wet ingredients.
Spread out on parchment paper on baking sheet.
Bake 300⁰ for 15 minutes, stir and mix around, then bake for another 4-5 minutes, or until golden brown. It should be pretty brown in color, this will tell you that it will be crunchy! Don't be afraid to let it get dark if you enjoy super crunchy granola, like me.
Let it cool.
Store in a ziplock bag.
Makes about 1½ to 2 Cups
I usually double this recipe!! But left it as written so you can try it in a smaller amount for your first time making it. Feel free to add more nuts, butter or coconut oil too if you're having trouble getting it crunchy.
