CATEGORIES
INGREDIENTS
- Cooking Time: 15-20 minutes
- Servings: 10
- Preparation Time: 5 minutes
- 3 cups old-fashioned oats
- 1 cup sliced raw almonds/pecans/nuts of your choice
- 1/4 cup raisins (and/or other dried fruit)
- 1/4 cup raw sunflower seeds
- 2 tbsps coconut oil, melted
- 1/4 cup honey, agave syrup, or maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp natural peanut butter, melted (optional)
- 1 tbsp cinnamon
- pinch of salt
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl, adding melted coconut oil if necessary to make sure mixture is completely covered (there should be no dry oats hanging out).
- Spread oats mixture onto parchment or foil-lined baking sheets. Bake for 10 minutes, then stir. Bake for an additional 8-10 minutes until the top oats have turned golden brown. Let cool for 10 minutes before breaking up, then store in mason jars, Ziplock bags, or Gladware containers.
- Serve with milk, yoghurt, or by the handful for a delicious and healthy snack! I enjoy mine with berries or bananas and yoghurt.
