Mmmm...

For those that don't know, I am a complete health nut. Not only do I love how fresh, whole foods make me feel, I actually really like the taste of healthy foods better that sugary, processed foods. I am constantly reading nutrition articles and looking up new recipes, so you can imagine how excited I was to find people who post delicious, organic foods on Pintrest.

This is a picture of organic vanilla buck wheat granola topped with cranberries and nonfat yogurt....yummm!

Here is the recipe:

VANILLA BUCKWHEAT GRANOLA

(Print Recipe)

2 cups of roasted buckwheat groats (kasha)

1/4 cup uncooked millet

1/2 cup uncooked quinoa

1 cup chopped almonds

1/4 cup sesame seeds

1/2 cup sunflower seeds

1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce

3 tablespoons olive oil

3 tablespoons honey, maple or agave syrup

2 teaspoons vanilla extract 

Yields ca. 20 servings

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Preheat oven to 160C/360F. Line large baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, combine kasha, millet, quinoa almonds, sesame and sunflower seeds. Set aside.

In a small pot, gently heat all wet ingredients. Take off the heat and let the flavors merge for a few minutes. Pour wet over dry ingredients and stir until well coated. Transfer mixture onto baking sheet and spread out in single layer. Bake for 20-30 minutes or until millet and quinoa seeds have turned golden. Let cool completely before storing in airtight container.
If the granola still feels a little wet, let cool. Then bake in the oven at lowest temperature for another 5-10 minutes.
