Coconutty Healthy Granola
(Vegan, gluten free, sugar free)
Beautiful and crunchy homemade granola is the best and most wholesome breakfast you can make for your family. It takes just over half an hour to make and is extremely tasty. Full of fibre, packed with nuts, seeds and dried fruit will give you the best start of the day. Great when topped with plant based yogurts and some maple syrup. Or layer with some chia pudding.. the possibly are endless when you have this tasty food around. As binder, instead of honey, i used Coconut syrup from CoconutMerchant .. i tastes really great and not overpowering coconut flavour. Give it a go- you’ll love it!
