GF Granola

Get your hippy gear out of storage! Peace and Love, man!
After a ton of research and gathering of the ingredients, we are very happy with this recipe for granola!
Use your own imagination and create a different treat by using a variety dried fruits or nuts even chocolate chunks can be added after the granola has cooled.

1 cup walnuts pieces
1/2 cup pecans pieces
1/2 cup sliced almonds
1/2 cup chopped hazelnuts
1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
1/2 cup sunflower seeds
2 cup quinoa flakes
1/2 cup flax meal
1/4 cup sesame seeds
1/4 cup coconut flour
1 cup raisins
1 cup coconut chips (or flakes)
1/4 cup coconut oil
3/4 cup maple syrup
1 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp cinnamon
1 egg white, whisked (omit for vegan option)

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. line cookie tray with parchment paper.
Combine dry ingredients: nuts, seeds, flakes, raisins and coconut, in large bowl.
Combine coconut oil & maple syrup in a pan over low heat until melted. Add salt, vanilla and cinnamon. Pour over nut mixture and combine well. Add egg white and combine, making sure everything is coated.
Transfer granola to the cookie sheet in one even layer. Bake 20 minute. Stir. Bake another 5 - 10 minutes. Don't let it burn, but you want it to be crisp and golden.
Remove from oven and allow to cool. Break into chunks and store in an airtight container. Best eaten within a couple weeks! Sprinkle on yogurt, serve with berries for breakfast or just eat it like a snack.
