Ingredients

  • 1 cup almonds 150g, whole
  • 1 cup walnut halves 100g
  • 1 cup pecans 100g
  • ½ cup pumpkin seeds 65g
  • ½ cup sunflower seeds 65g
  • ⅓ cup Flaxseed 40g, milled
  • ⅓ cup whey protein powder 30g, unflavoured
  • 1 ½ cup coconut flakes 90g, unsweetened, chips
  • ⅓ cup almond butter 80 g, smooth
  • ⅓ cup water 80 ml
  • 4 tablespoon freeze dried raspberries
  • 2 tablespoon granulated sweetener
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 150 Celsius / 300 Fahrenheit (electric).
  2. Pulse the almonds, walnuts and pecans in a food processor until you have a mixture of smaller and larger pieces. Don't over-process!
  3. Repeat with the pumpkin and sunflower seeds. 
  4. Empty the nuts and seeds into a bowl. Add the rest of the ingredients (reserve 2 tablespoons of the raspberries for later) and mix with a spatula. The mixture should be sticky. If it's still dry, add another tablespoon of water.
  5. Press the mixture firmly onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper until you have a flat surface. 
  6. Bake the granola in the oven for 25-30 minutes until browned. Turn the baking sheet after 20 minutes. 
  7. Remove from the oven and let cool. Then break into small pieces, mix with the remaining 2 tablespoons of freeze-dried raspberries and store in an airtight container.

Notes

  • The recipe yields 15 portions of about 50g (⅓ cup) each, with approximately 7g net carbs per portion.
  • If the granola center seems underbaked after 30 minutes, return it to the oven to dry it out further for extra crunch.
  • You can remove the edges if they become crunchier than the center to have a uniform texture.
  • Freeze-dried raspberries add tartness and color but can be omitted and replaced with 1 tablespoon cinnamon if unavailable.
  • Nutrition info covers granola only, excluding any yogurt or berries served alongside.
