Cinnamon Granola

I finally got to try out a recipe for a grain-free granola and it turned out so tasty, filling and crunchy!

It’s got a delicious mix of flavours: almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, coconut and cinnamon! This mix gets very crunchy once its out of the oven and cools and the nuts make it even more crunchy! The blend of the sweetness of the cinnamon and coconut also gives it a rich flavour.

As always, I’d love to know when you try this out. Enjoy! xx
