Ingredients

1 cup whole almonds 150g
1 cup walnut halves 100g
1 cup pecans 100g
½ cup pumpkin seeds 65g
½ cup sunflower seeds 65g
⅓ cup flaxseed 40g, milled
⅓ cup whey protein powder 30g, unflavoured
1 ½ cup coconut flakes/chips 90g, unsweetened
⅓ cup smooth almond butter 80 g
⅓ cup water 80 ml
4 tablespoon freeze dried raspberries
2 tablespoon granulated sweetener
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 150 Celsius / 300 Fahrenheit (electric).
Pulse the almonds, walnuts and pecans in a food processor until you have a mixture of smaller and larger pieces. Don't over-process!
Repeat with the pumpkin and sunflower seeds.
Empty the nuts and seeds into a bowl. Add the rest of the ingredients (reserve 2 tablespoons of the raspberries for later) and mix with a spatula. The mixture should be sticky. If it's still dry, add another tablespoon of water.
Press the mixture firmly onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper until you have a flat surface.
Bake the granola in the oven for 25-30 minutes until browned. Turn the baking sheet after 20 minutes.
Remove from the oven and let cool. Then break into small pieces, mix with the remaining 2 tablespoons of freeze-dried raspberries and store in an airtight container.

Notes

3.7g net carbs per portion. The mix makes 15 portions of 50g / ⅓ cup each.

If you feel that the granola at the centre of the baking tray is not browned enough after 30 minutes, place it back into the oven and bake it a bit longer. This way, any additional moisture evaporates and the granola will be extra crunchy. Option to remove the outer edges of the granola, which may be crunchy sooner than the middle.

If you can't source freeze-dried raspberries, leave them out and season with 1 tablespoon of cinnamon instead.
