Homemade Crunchy Matcha Granola ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฐ๐Ÿ˜‹โค๏ธ

โ€ข12 Replies

Hello everyone, hope you have a wonderful midweek so far! ๐Ÿค—

I love granola just for snacks or to add in my yogurt and oatmeal chia jar, so I often make granola for gluten-free caution and this time is mixing with Matcha powder. ๐Ÿ˜‹๐Ÿ‘

Recipe:

1. Low heat in pot: 50ml extra Virgin oil/coconut oil, 2 tbsp matcha powder, 100ml maple syrup. When the liquid is warm, it will bind to all the ingredients better.

2. Remove pot from stove to mix well gluten free rolled oats, almonds, cashews, and pumpkin seeds together.

3. Bake in oven at 350F for 20 mins. Add your favorite dried fruits after 10 mins and at the same time flip all ingredients for even baked.

Let them cool and store in your glass jar and happy snacking! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘

As always, be inspired, be joyful, take a picture and Enjoy it! ๐Ÿ˜‹โค๏ธ

Wow! That looks delicous Koko - what a treat ๐Ÿ˜ Thats very creative.

I have not tried Matcha powder - does it have a slightly bitter taste?

Enjoy your Day, hope its not too hot for you

Hi Debs, thank you very much for saying that, youโ€™re so kind! ๐Ÿค—๐Ÿ™

The Matcha powder over power the maple syrup so it gives a veryyy, veryyy mild earthy sweetness but not bitter at all. If you like bitter taste, you can add more matcha powder. I find this is perfect balance, hmmm I would describe earthy sweetness. ๐Ÿค”

The weather is not too hot and humid today. I hope it wonโ€™t get hotter as itโ€™s so unpredictable over here.

I hope you had a wonderful dinner and a restful night! ๐Ÿ˜‡

Earthy Sweetness - sounds lovely ๐Ÿ˜Š what a nice way of discribing it

Glad the weather is not too hot for you, we had a couple of extremely hot days but today is coolier, damp and with a risk of thunder - it is so unpredictable like you say

Awe thank you Debs, I enjoy these earthy treats over my favorite shows very much. ๐Ÿ˜‹Itโ€™s going to be in 90s today over here. I am just going to have cauliflower and celery ๐Ÿฅฃ for lunch. It is a case of climate change as we see everywhere the weather seems to be so unpredictable. ๐Ÿ˜…

I had many bananas to use up before they go brown so I made small banana pies to have with ice cream (I looked and no Swedish glacรฉ here in US ๐Ÿ˜•). I will have that for dinner later as I canโ€™t eat full meal whenever itโ€™s hot.

I hope you keep yourself safe and sound over there. ๐Ÿค—

That is very hot - thankfully its not bee quite that hot here. How sweet - little banana pies, you are very organized. No Swedish glacรฉ, what a shame, it is very good, I am sure in time you will get to try some.

Have a lovely weekend Koko ๐Ÿ˜ I will be going for a meal tomorrow at my favourite vegan restaurant tomorrow, nothing to tiring as Monday will be an extremely long day ๐Ÿ˜

That is delicious. Love love some granola. All the ingredients you used are healthy. I hope you enjoy it over the coming days/weeks

Thank you very much Kainan and I know you are a fan of granola. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ‘

Itโ€™s extra crunchy by baking fresh and you can custom whatever you like in your granola too. ๐Ÿ˜‹๐Ÿ‘

Hope your studying going great and donโ€™t forget to take a little break to supply your body with good snacks and water. ๐Ÿ˜‡
