Ingredients

  • 1 cup (200 g) Maskal Teff grain
  • 2 cups (200 g) gluten-free rolled oats
  • 1 cup (100 g) nuts of choice, roughly chopped
  • 1/2 cup (25 g) coconut flakes
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup coconut or olive oil
  • 1/2 cup real maple syrup
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 320°F.
  2. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. In a large bowl, mix together Maskal Teff grain, oats, nuts, coconut flakes, cinnamon, and salt. Add oil, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.
  4. Pour granola mixture onto the baking sheet and use a spoon to press it down into a uniform layer, about ½ inch thick.
  5. Bake for 15 minutes, then stir, flattening down again before baking for an additional 15 minutes. When done, the granola should be lightly golden brown, but will still have a bit of moisture. It will harden as it cools. If you think it needs a bit more baking time, stir and place back in the oven for 5-minute intervals, ensuring it does not burn.
  6. Let the granola cool completely before breaking up into pieces. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
