Ingredients

dry

  • 3 cups gluten free rolled oats (not quick cooking)
  • 1 1/2 cups unsweetened coconut flakes
  • 1/2 cup raw almonds, roughly chopped
  • 1/2 cup raw walnuts, roughly chopped
  • 1/3 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 2 tablespoons chia or flax seeds, ground
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/3 cup raisins

wet

  • 1/2 cup runny almond butter
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 300°F and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  • In a small pot heat the almond butter, maple syrup and vanilla extract on low, stirring until well combined.
  • In a large bowl mix the oats, coconut flakes, almonds, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, ground chia/flax seeds and cinnamon. Pour the melted mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until coated.
  • Spread the mixture on the baking tray in an even layer and bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway. Keep an eye on it so it doesn’t get overcooked. It should become slightly crisp and have a golden colour when done. Remove from the oven and let cool.
  • Once cooled add the raisins (or other dried fruit of choice) and mix. Eat as is or top with fresh fruit, almond milk or yogurt. It will keep up to two weeks in an airtight jar. Enjoy!
