Ingredients

• 1 cup Raw almonds
• 1 cup Raw pecans
• 0.5 cup Raw sunflower seeds
• 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened shredded coconut
• 0.5 cup Pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
• 0.25 cup Flaxseed meal
• 0.25 cup Coconut oil
• 0.25 cup Sugar-free maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 2 large Egg whites
• 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder (optional)
• 0.5 cup Protein powder (keto-friendly, unflavored)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Roughly chop the almonds and pecans, or pulse them briefly in a food processor if you prefer smaller pieces.

Step 3

In a large bowl, combine the chopped almonds, chopped pecans, sunflower seeds, chia seeds, shredded coconut, pumpkin seeds, flaxseed meal, and protein powder. If you choose to add it, mix in the cocoa powder as well.

Step 4

In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the coconut oil. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the sugar-free maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt.

Step 5

Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients and mix until everything is well coated.

Step 6

In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until foamy and then gently fold into the granola mixture. The egg whites help bind the granola and make it crispy.

Step 7

Spread the mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet. Press down with a spatula to compact the granola slightly.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the granola is golden brown and fragrant.

Step 9

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the granola to cool completely on the pan. It will become crisp as it cools.

Step 10

Once cooled, break into clusters and store in an airtight container for up to two weeks.
