Grain Free Granola

So I've been making a grain free version of my favorite granola recipe that I just had to share with y'all. We were playing around with the idea of going grain free for a while last year. While we didn't make the switch, we did fall in love with this mostly nut version of our favorite granola.

Try this grain free version of our favorite granola recipe!

This version is lower carb, higher protein, and we are in total nut heaven over here. The hubster eats this granola almost every day over plain whole milk yogurt. How he can eat the same thing every morning is beyond me, but at least it's a delicious and healthy meal.

The recipe is mostly nuts, with some coconut and seeds.



Maple syrup, cinnamon, and oil get whisked together and then mixed in with the dry ingredients.

Prepare yourself for smells of cinnamon and maple to fill your kitchen as this Grain Free Granola bakes.

Then, the granola gets spread out evenly over a parchment lined baking sheet and baked for about 30 minutes. I can just smell the maple and cinnamon wafting through the kitchen now. So yum!

Bake up a batch and let me know how you like this version.
