I hope you'll enjoy the following recipe. It is to create a healthy low fat, low sugar, gluten free granola. The recipe shows you how to create a plain granola and then each morning you can add additional fresh ingredients such as fruit, nuts, seeds, etc to create the taste you desire at that time.
Ingredients:
1 cup GF rolled oats
1 cup GF puffed brown rice - I use Erewhon, unsweetened
1 small carton (4oz) unsweetened organic apple sauce
1. Preheat the oven to 375F
2. Mix the oats and rice together and stir in the apple sauce, to thoroughly combine.
3. Spread on a baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes.
4. Remove from the oven and stir well, bringing the edges into the center
5. Return to the oven for another 10 minutes. If it is dry and crispy, remove. If still a bit soft, stir and put back in for a couple more minutes. Watch it carefully as the edges may burn.
6. Cool and store in a jar for a month.
It isn't sweet but the addition of fruit sweetens it enough for me. If you prefer, you could add some stevia as sweetener. My favorite way to eat this is with raspberries and blackberries and a little unsweetened almond milk.
It has a much lower fat and sugar content than granolas you buy - check the labels.
Let me know what you think.
