Yes, although the holidays are over I still love the gingerbread flavor in the wintertime. And yes when I got this morning and saw that it was 47 degrees, in southern CA, we are very much in winter (well for here)....brrrr its cold outside campers!
Here is a gluten free and vegan granola that has that gingerbread flavor with the warm spices and great crunch. No need to stir this granola after you put it in the oven to bake the small clusters are great for snacking. This is a fav or my son's served for breakfast with milk like a bowl or cereal or on top of Greek yogurt or sprinkled on top of oatmeal for an extra crunch or for dessert with berries. Whatever way you want to try it I bet you will like it too.
Ingredients:
3 c. gluten free oats
2 c. mixed nuts and seeds - I use walnuts, pecans and pumpkin seeds
1/2 c. almond meal
2 tbsp chia seeds
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ground ginger
1/8 tsp cloves
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/2 c. coconut oil, melted
1/3 c. brown rice syrup
2 tbsp unsulfered molasses
Heat oven to 325 degrees. Line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, mix oats, nuts, seeds, spices, and salt until well combined. In a measuring cup/bowl, combine the melted coconut oil with brown rice syrup and molasses. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and mix well until all the oats are evenly coated. Spread out on the cookie sheet in a even layer. Bake 40 min, turn the sheet half way through . Let the granola cool fully on the sheet. Break into pieces and store in air tight container or just dig in.
Enjoy!
