Granola is everything and more with its warm, comforting spices and crunchy texture. Enjoy it by the handful, over ice cream, in your favorite bowl or as a topping to a shake or smoothie.
Makes About 3 Cups
Prepare the oven and pan:
Preheat the oven to 300°. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Prepare the nuts:
Place the nuts in a food processor and pulse several times until the mixture resembles a crumbly texture. Do not over-process. Transfer the nuts to a large mixing bowl then stir in the coconut flakes until evenly combined.
Make the granola:
Add the melted coconut oil, butter and tapioca syrup and mix well. Next add the sweetener, coconut sugar, cinnamon and Tigernut flakes and stir until evenly combined.
Bake the granola:
Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 10 minutes, then stir. Return to the oven and bake for another 5 to 10 minutes. Watch closely to avoid burning, stirring as needed until the granola is golden in color. Remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle a good pinch of the Maldon salt over the granola. Cool completely in the fridge for at least 30 minutes until it hardens.
Store the granola:
Store the granola in a covered container in the fridge for up to four days.
Notes: A sharp knife can be used in place of a food processor.
