Preparation duration: 8 minutes

Cooking duration: 22 minutes

 

Ingredients:

1 medium ripe banana, mashed ( - 1/2 cup)

1/2 Tbsp cinnamon

1/4 cup coconut oil

1 Tbsp flax seed

1/3 cup + 1 Tbsp maple syrup, agave or honey if not vegan

1/2 cup pecans

3 Tbsp raw sugar

3 cups rolled oats (GF for gluten free eaters)

1/2 tsp sea salt

1 tsp vanilla extract

3/4 cup walnuts

Equipment:

oven

sauce pan

whisk

bowl

baking sheet

Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat oven to 350.Mix the oats, cinnamon, sugar, salt, flaxseed and nuts together in a large bowl (see photo).In a small saucepan over medium low heat, warm the coconut oil, maple syrup (or agave or honey) and vanilla extract. Once liquidy, remove from heat and whisk in banana puree until well combined. Pour over the dry ingredients and mix well.Spread the mixture evenly onto one or two baking sheets (making sure it doesn't get crowded) and bake for 23-28 minutes or until golden brown. The coconut oil will help it crisp up well, but be sure to watch it carefully as it can brown quickly.NOTE: If you don't toss the granola while baking, it will make get clumpy, which I personally love. But if you want a more crumbly granola, toss/stir a bit at the halfway point to break up the clumps.Once the granola is visibly browned, remove from the oven and toss just a bit to let the heat escape. Cool completely on the baking sheet or in a heat-safe bowl. Store in a container or jar with an air-tight seal - it should keep for a couple weeks.

Food Joke

There once was a blind man who decided to visit Texas. When he arrived on the plane, he felt the seats and said, "Wow, these seats are big!" The person next to him answered, "Everything is big in Texas." When he finally arrived in Texas, he decided to visit a bar. Upon arriving in the bar, he ordered a beer and got a mug placed between his hands. He exclaimed, "Wow these mugs are big!" The bartender replied, "Everything is big in Texas." After a couple of beers, the blind man asked the bartender where the bathroom was located. The bartender replied, "Second door to the right." The blind man headed for the bathroom, but accidentally tripped over and skipped the second door. Instead, he entered the third door, which lead to the swimming pool and fell into the pool by accident. Scared to death, the blind man started shouting, "Don't flush, don't flush!"
