Granola
Category: Breakfast

Suitable for a: vegan diet


Ingredients:
------------------------------------------------------

1/4 C soaked raw almonds
1/4 C soaked raw sunflower seeds
1/4 C soaked raw walnuts
4 pitted medjool dates, chopped, unsoaked
1/4 t cinnamon
dash celtic sea salt
1/2 C sliced fruit of choice
1/2 C almond milk


Instructions:
------------------------------------------------------

First soak all the raw nuts and seeds in water for several hours. Then drain the seeds and let them air dry in a colander or strainer. I personally like to place them in the Excalibur on 105 for an hour or so. This allows the nuts and seeds to regain some crunchiness but still have active enzymes. I then store this dry nut and seed mix in a vacuum sealed container.

Place the nut and seed mix in the cuisinart (or any food processor) fitted with the S blade and pulse briefly, just until coarsely chopped. Add the dates, cinnamon, and salt and proces briefly to mix. Transfer to a small bowl and combine with the fruit. Pour in the almond milk and enjoy.

Thank you so much for the compliment. I just want to remind everyone that this recipe is great any time of the day. Even as a late night snack. Just keep some of the nut and seed mix premade in an air tight container so you can have cereal any time you want it.
