1X 2X 3X

• ¼ cup raw almonds

• ¼ cup raw pumpkin seeds

• ¼ cup raw sunflower seeds

• ¼ cup raw cashews

• ¼ cup raw walnuts

• ¼ cup raw hazelnuts

• ¼ cup raw brazil nuts

• ¼ cup coconut chips

• 2 tbsp hemp seeds

• 2 tbsp chia seeds

• 2 tbsp white sesame seeds

• 2 tbsp black sesame seeds

• 1 tsp cinnamon

• 1 tbsp coconut oil, melted

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• 2 tbsp erythritol (or sweetener of your choice)

Instructions

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.



• 2

  In a large mixing bowl, combine the almonds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, cashews, walnuts, hazelnuts, brazill nuts, hemp seeds, chia seeds, white and black sesame seeds. Mix them well.



• 3

  In a separate microwave-safe bowl, melt the coconut oil in the microwave or on the stovetop until it turns into a liquid.



• 4

  Stir the powdered erythritol (or your preferred keto-friendly sweetener), vanilla extract and cinnamon into the melted coconut oil. Mix until everything is well combined.



• 5

  Pour the liquid mixture over the dry ingredients in the large mixing bowl. Stir thoroughly to ensure all the nuts and seeds are coated with the sweetened coconut oil mixture.



• 6

  Spread the mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Use a spatula to press it down, creating an even layer.



• 7

  Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the granola turns golden brown. Make sure to stir the granola every 5-7 minutes to prevent burning and ensure even cooking.



• 8

  Once the granola is golden and crunchy, remove it from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet. At this point, you can add the coconut chips.



• 9

  Store your low carb - keto friendly granola in an airtight container at room temperature.

Tips

• Add Coconut Chips: Include coconut chips, wait until after the granola has cooled. Simply mix them in once your granola is ready.

• Keto-Friendly Breakfast: Serve your low-carb keto friendly granola with unsweetened almond milk, coconut milk, or Greek yogurt for a satisfying keto breakfast or snack.

• Cinnamon Flavor: Adjust the amount of ground cinnamon to suit your taste. You can also experiment with other spices like nutmeg or cardamom for different flavor profiles.

• Crunchy Clusters: For chunky granola clusters, press the mixture firmly on the baking sheet before baking. Break it into clusters once it's cooled.

• Customize: Get creative with your granola by adding unsweetened cocoa powder, a dash of almond extract, or a sprinkle of sea salt for added depth of flavor.

Notes

• Sweetener Options: You can use powdered erythritol, stevia, or any other preferred keto-friendly sweetener to add a touch of sweetness to your granola.

• Mix It Up: Feel free to get creative with your choice of nuts and seeds. Peanuts, flaxseeds, pine nuts and macadamia nuts are great options

• Avoid Overbaking: Keep a close eye on the granola while it's in the oven. It can go from perfectly golden to overbaked quickly, so stir it frequently to ensure even browning.

• Storage: Store your granola in an airtight container at room temperature. It should remain fresh for several weeks.
