Almond, Date and Coconut Granola

July 22, 2015 By Hana 2 Comments

Almond Date and Coconut Granola

I’ve made this lovely Almond, Date and Coconut Granola to take for my holidays to Portugal this month. I find that I love to have something familiar for breakfast when I’m away, so I do take time to prepare some before I go. Granola is very simple to make and there are so many combinations that you can try. It takes only half an hour to make a large batch that you can eat for breakfast or have for snacking during the day.

Almond Date and Coconut Granola

I love almonds and for this recipe I’ve used a mix of oats, almonds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, dates and flaked cocout. You can replace any of the ingredients with your favourite nuts, seeds or dried fruit. You could also replace coconut oil with butter, maple syrup with honey, add different spices, the choice is yours. Enjoy this granola with milk of your choice, yoghurt, orange juice, fresh fruit,…..

Author: Hana, Nirvana Cakery
Ingredients
  • 250g oats (3 cups)
  • 100g almonds, roughly chopped (1 cup)
  • 40g pumpkin seeds (1/4 cup)
  • 40g sunflower seeds (1/4 cup)
  • 1tsp cinnamon
  • ¼tsp sea salt
  • ½ lemon, zest
  • 80ml coconut oil (1/3 cup)
  • 80ml maple syrup (1/3 cup)
  • 85g pitted dates, chopped (1/2 cup)
  • 50g flaked coconut (1 cup)
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (160°C fan)
  2. In a large mixing bowl mix oats, almonds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, cinnamon, sea salt and lemon zest.
  3. In a small pan melt coconut oil together with maple syrup and pour over the dry mix.
  4. Mix well and spoon the mixture onto a baking tray.
  5. Bake for 10 min and stir.
  6. Bake for further 10 min stirring once in between.
  7. After 20-25 min the granola should be almost ready.
  8. At this point stir in coconut flakes and chopped dates and return to the oven for 3-5 more minutes until the coconut flakes are nicely toasted, but be careful not to burn the granola. You can skip this step if you prefer the coconut flakes untoasted.
  9. Remove from the oven and leave to cool down.
  10. Store in an airtight container.
  11. Enjoy!

      Hi Natacha, I tend to eat mine within a week, but it should last at least 2 weeks stored in an airtight container. You can also refrigerate or freeze your granola if you like.

Happy New Year beautiful! ✨ I’m feeling that Happy New Year beautiful! ✨

I’m feeling that this is the year we all need to ease into. Use this sacred pause we’re in until the 5th of January to really go within and listen deeply to what are you being called to birth this year. Forget creating goals from your ego. What are those whispers of your soul calling you to? Is it time to take the lead in your life? ✨

If this year is a continuation of 2020 we will need more conscious embodied leaders taking charge to create the change our planet needs. It’s us who create the future. ✨

Now that many of us are awake we need conscious women and men to walk together hand in hand! We’ve got this! 

✨🕊✨

Sending so much Love Hana xx

White Yule Log from last year ❄️ Chocolate spo White Yule Log from last year ❄️ Chocolate sponge cake with white chocolate frosting, all gluten-free & vegan! You can find the recipe on my blog in the Christmas round up post for easy access.🎄

What dessert are you making this year? To be honest I’ve got my gingerbread cookies stored in fridge, the leftover chocolate cranberry orange cake in freezer so I’m quite sorted! But still pondering whether to make the gingerbread cheesecake. And just have written a new recipe for a lentil nut roast which I’m really looking forward to making on Christmas Day. 🎄

Chocolate Cranberry Orange Cake 🌱 @amoredimona Chocolate Cranberry Orange Cake 🌱 @amoredimona has challenged me to create vegan, grain-free and nut-free chocolate recipe and so I took on the challenge with this layer cake. And I have finally experienced with cassava and tigernut flours, something I’ve been wanting to do for ages. If you fancy some grain-free baking check out the recipe on the blog. 😉

Have a wonderful weekend beautiful! ✨

Sending much love Hxx 🕊
