Ingredients
Dry:

- 1/4 cup dried shredded coconut unsweetened, small flakes
- 2 Tablespoons sesame seeds
- a generous dash of black pepper
Wet:
- 1 tsp oil extra virgin olive or coconut

- 2 tsps soy sauce use coconut aminos for soy-free

- .
Instructions
- In a pan, add oil, sriracha, soy sauce, maple syrup, sugar and salt and bring to a boil on medium heat. Boil for 2-3 minutes at low-medium heat. Take off heat and mix in the almond butter, sesame oil and zest. Mix to a smooth consistency.
- In another bowl, add all the dry ingredients and mix to distribute evenly. Mix the wet into the dry and combine well.
- Spread on a large baking sheet(or 2 medium). Bake at 325 degrees F / 160ºc for 20-25 minutes. Move the granola around with a spatula, 2-3 times in between, so the edges do not burn and it bakes evenly. Press them into clumps after removing from the oven. Let cool completely before storing

Notes
- If making this without Sriracha (which will taste amazing too like a sweet and sour Orange granola), add a Tbsp more nut butter and a tsp of vinegar, to have enough wet for the dry ingredients. I use Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce by Huy fong, other brands might have fish or animal ingredients in the sauce.
