Clean Gingerbread Granola
Christmas is full of lovely, comforting smells; from fresh pine trees, to roasted chestnuts, and honey glazed ham bubbling in the oven, but few warm the house like the sweet smell of gingerbread spices. Our wonderful contributing chef  Hedi  ( @hedihearts ) has created a recipe that’s guaranteed to fill your home with Christmas spirit! Aside from being a wonderful home fragrance, this recipe tastes amazing and can be tackled by even the most novice baker! Plus, it is jam-packed with all the goodness of our coconut friend’s – what more could we ask for? Try this granola with yoghurt and winter fruits for a tasty December treat, or for an indulgent dessert, roll your granola in coconut jam and cool in the fridge before enjoying. ‘Tis the season to give in to your sweet cravings after all! So, what are you waiting for? Let’s get cooking!
 
What you’ll need:
-  ½ cup Coconut Oil (slightly melted)
-  1 tablespoon ginger powder (or more if you want it especially gingery!)
-  3 tablespoons Coconut Syrup
-  ½ tablespoon nutmeg
-  2 teaspoons Cinnamon
-  ¼ teaspoon ground clove
-  A pinch of salt
-  1 cup pecans
-  1 cup raw Coconut Chips (or Toasted Flakes )
-  3 cups oats
-  ½ cup puffed buckwheat (rice or quinoa would also work)
-  1 cup pecans
-  1/3 cup dates (chopped)
-  3 tablespoons almond milk (or try our UFC Milks )

 

Let’s get started!
1. Start by preheating your oven to 170 degrees Celsius (degrees Farenheit).
2. Next, in a large bowl mix your coconut flakes, pecans, oats, puffed buckwheat, and all your spices. Set aside.
3. Grab a separate bowl, and throw in your coconut oil, maple syrup, and milk. Whisk together until nicely combined then pour over your patiently waiting, dry mixture. Give it a good mix!
4. Now, line a baking tray with baking paper and evenly spread out your granola mixture, pressing down firmly to ensure the mixture sticks together.
5. Pop your baking tray in the oven and wait patiently for your mix to cook for approx. 20 minutes.
6. After 20 minutes switch the oven off and let your granola sit for another 20 minutes. Tip: Leave the oven door slightly open during these 20 minutes to make your granola even more crunchy and clustery!
7. When your granola is completely cool, throw in your chopped dates.
8. Finally, its time to dig in! (Store what is left over in a sealed bag or airtight container.)
