Ingredients: Serves 14
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
- 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 cup pumpkin seeds
- 1 cup almonds flakes
- 1/4 cup linseeds

- 1/4 cup Sukrin gold
- 1/2 tbsp. vanilla bean paste
- 1/4 coconut oil, melted

Method:
1. Preheat oven to 170 degrees Celsius.
2. Place all dry ingredients, coconut oil and vanilla onto a non-stick baking paper-lined cookie tray and toast for 12-15 mins, tossing the granola every 2-3 mins until golden brown. Transfer to a large bowl.
3. Combine honey, egg white, and nut butter into the granola and mix until well combined. Transfer back onto baking tray and spread the mix evenly. Bake it for a further 20 mins, tossing the mixture midway (10 min mark).
