I was craving cereal over the weekend (doesn’t help that my husband buys cereal I can’t eat!) so I finally tried out a recipe I had found for Raw Nut Granola. It is a bit of a process but it was so worth it. It turned out as raw granola bars that you can break up into granola for cereal. So you really get two recipes in one!
This recipe does require a dehydrator so if you don’t have one, you may be able to bake the mixture at about 300 degrees F until it is crisp. You may want to put it on parchment paper or just grease the pan very well. You’ll also want to make the mixture quite thin on the pan. This does kill the beneficial enzymes in the nuts and seeds but it is an option if you don’t have a dehydrator.
I did make some adjustments to the recipe, simply due to not having dates, lemon, pumpkin seeds or vanilla. But here is the original recipe as well as my adjustments. For me, it made two full sheets of granola on the Excalibur dehydrating sheets which later fit almost into two quart sized jars (one is already gone…)
