Blueberry Granola

There is just something about the crunchy bites of almonds and the chewy sweet dried blueberry that make this granola hard to stop eating. I love that its full of almonds for protein, chia seeds to detoxify your body, blueberries for antioxidants, flax for your omega 3 and oats loaded with fibre.  What more could you ask for in a breakfast or snack.

I love making granola! It is so fast, simple and your house smells amazing while it is cooking.

So wash them mitts, lets get cookin'.

Blueberry Granola

3c Oats, rolled

1/2c Almonds, slivered or chopped

1/4c Chia Seeds

1/8c Flax seeds, freshly ground

1/2c Blueberries, dried

1/3c Coconut oil, melted

1/3c Honey, softened

Preheat oven to 350F

In a large bowl mix together oats, almonds and seeds.

In a smaller bowl mix together honey and oil. They will not mix well but give it a bit of a stir then add it to the oats and stir until all is coated and evenly mixed.

Place on a cookie sheet and spread out evenly and bake for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and add in the blueberries and stir a little. Return to oven and bake an additional 8-10 minutes.  Do not over cook as the blueberries will turn very hard. Once finished cooking remove from oven and let sit until cooled then break the granola up.  I like big chunks here and there so break up as much as you wish.

Serve over yogurt, with milk or just by the handful. Enjoy!
