Perfect Crunchy Granola

I love snacks, I love breakfast and I especially love snacks you can eat for breakfast! Yesterday i posted a picture on Instagram of my granola, strawberry and banana snack that I took with me on a busy day. Lots of you lovely people asked for the recipe so time to post!!



Perfect Crunchy Granola
What you need
2 cups old fashioned oats
1/4 cup buckwheat
5 medjool dates (chopped into little pieces) 
2 tbsp chia seeds
4 tbsp gojiberries
1/4 cup of agave syrup 
1/2 cup of melted coconut oil

What to do
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and place the old fashioned oats on a cookie sheet in the middle of the oven. Bake them until they they are lightly toasted (10-15 minutes).

In a large bowl combine the dates, chia, goji, buckwheat and your toasted oats. First add the melted coconut oil and mix until everything is covered. Then add the agave syrup (you can also use raw honey) and stir until the mixture is sticky.

Spread your mixture again on a cookie sheet and bake for 15 minutes, stir every 5 minutes so both sides are crunchy and golden brown.

Take the granola out of your oven and let it cool completely before you break it in even chunks.
Breakfast tip: granola, cashewmilk, fresh blueberries and some ground flaxseed
Snack: granola, strawberries and banana (see the picture)

Enjoy!!
