This homemade "raw-nola" is sweet, fragrant, and bursting with the taste of delicious coconut.
Banana-Almond Raw-Nola
Serves 4-6
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup almond butter
- 1/3 cup agave nectar
- 2 Tbsp. melted coconut oil
- 1 small banana
- 1 Tbsp. flax meal
- 1 1/2 cups dehydrated buckwheat groats
- 1 cup sliced or slivered almonds
- 1 cup dried shredded coconut
Directions
Note: If you don't have a dehydrator, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Blend the almond butter, agave nectar, coconut oil, banana, and flax meal in a blender until smooth.
Mix the buckwheat, almonds, and coconut in a large bowl. Pour the sauce over the mixture and mix thoroughly with your hands.
Spread the raw-nola on a Teflex or parchment-lined dehydrator tray. Dehydrate at 115 degrees Fahrenheit or overnight (8 hours). Move the granola around a bit to break it up, and dehydrate for another 6 hours.
If you don't have a dehydrator, transfer the granola to a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake until it's lightly browned, about 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the granola from the oven and allow it to air dry until completely cool.
Stored in a sealed container, this raw-nola will keep for up to two weeks. It will remain extra crispy if stored in the fridge.
