How You’ll Make It
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the oats, uncooked quinoa, and chopped almonds.
- Combine the Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, applesauce, and cinnamon powder until well combined.
- Combine Everything: Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients and stir until everything is evenly coated.
- Bake: Spread the mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until golden and crispy.
- Cool and Store: Once baked, remove the granola from the oven and allow it to cool completely. It will crisp up as it cools. Store in an airtight container for up to a week.
- Serve: Enjoy your Quinoa Granola as a breakfast topping for yogurt or smoothie bowls, or eat it as a snack!
Tips:
- Feel free to add other nuts or seeds like pumpkin seeds or sunflower seeds.
- For a sweeter granola, add a little more maple syrup.
