Ingredients
- 2 cups Rolled oats
- 0.5 cup Raw almonds, chopped
- 0.25 cup Pumpkin seeds
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1 tablespoon Matcha powder
- 0.25 cup Honey
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, chopped almonds, pumpkin seeds, shredded coconut, matcha powder, and salt. Stir until well mixed.
Step 3
In a separate small bowl, whisk together honey, unsweetened applesauce, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Step 4
Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients. Stir with a spatula or wooden spoon until the dry ingredients are evenly coated.
Step 5
Spread the granola mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even baking and prevent burning. The granola should be golden brown and crunchy.
Step 7
Remove from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet, allowing it to crisp up further as it cools.
Step 8
Once cooled, store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
