Description

I was having a hard time finding a commercial gluten-free granola that wasn't too sweet, and that didn't have fruit in it. This recipe is my take on a bowl of heaven! I keep it in a 1-gallon resealable plastic bag, in the freezer. Taste test for sweetness before baking!

Ingredients
  • 3 cups old-fashioned oats
  • 1 cup almonds, chopped
  • ½ cup raw sunflower seeds
  • ½ cup coconut flakes
  • ¼ cup brown rice flour
  • ¼ cup coconut flour (such as Bob's Red Mill®)
  • ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground cardamom
  • 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • ¾ cup almond milk
  • ½ cup brown rice syrup
  • ¼ cup blackstrap molasses
  • ¼ cup coconut oil, melted
  • 1 tablespoon Madagascar vanilla extract
Directions
  1. 1. Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
  2. 2. Place oats, almonds, sunflower seeds, coconut flakes, cocoa powder, salt, cardamom, and cinnamon in a large bowl. Mix until thoroughly combined.
  3. 3. Combine almond milk, brown rice syrup, molasses, coconut oil, and vanilla extract in a large measuring cup. Stir into the oats mixture with a large spoon until evenly coated. Spread onto 2 large baking sheets.
  4. 4. Bake on the middle rack of the preheated oven, stirring every 30 minutes, until dry and crunchy, about 2 hours. Turn off heat; leave granola in the oven until cool enough to handle, 25 to 30 minutes.
