Ingredients
- Three cups of rolled oats
- One cup mix of almonds, sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds
- Half cup chopped dried fruits (such as raisins or apricots)
- One cup honey/maple syrup
- Half cup melted coconut oil/unsalted butter
- One teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Directions
- In a large bowl, mix the rolled oats with nuts and seeds.
- In a separate bowl whisk together honey / maple syrup, melted coconut oil / unsalted butter along with vanilla extract and pinch of salt.
- Pour this wet mixture over dry ingredients in step 1 and stir until well-coated.
- Spread your granola mix evenly on dehydrator trays ensuring it forms thin layer; break up any large clumps for even drying.
- Set your dehydrator at 135°F (57°C) to maintain crunchiness while still preserving the nutrients. Dehydrate for up to 6-8 hours until dry and crisp to your liking.
- Allow granola to cool before mixing in chopped dried fruits of your choice.
- Store cooled, dehydrated granola in an airtight container.
