Best Raw Food Granola

This is the best raw granola I’ve made yet. The nuts and seeds need to soak, so usually I start soaking the almonds at night, then in the morning I put the pumpkin and sunflower seeds on to soak and start making the granola in the evening. So it’s in the dehydrator overnight and usually ready by the next morning. Sprouted buckwheat groats are optional, but make a really nice, extra-crunchy addition. I usually have them on hand, I make them up by themselves and just sprinkle some into the finished granola. This raw granola is great with kefir. I’ve not tried it with nut milk yet but I bet it would be delicious with either almond milk or cashew milk. I love it just for a snack too, I eat it by the handful. It would store and travel really well if you go hiking too. Read more »

I’ve wanted to give up dairy for some time now, but the one challenge was my morning latte. This almond milk was so good it almost made me forget to add the coffee. It’s given me the key ingredient that’s allowed me to create non-dairy beverages that I like even more than cafe latte. This almond milk is delicious by itself, in smoothies, milkshakes (or mylkshakes) or on raw granola. Read more »
