Low Carb Granola

Low Carb GranolaLow Carb Granola. About the second or third day we started eating this low carb granola with Yogurt and blueberries my husband turned to me and said “I think I could eat this every day for the rest of my life”…and so we have…almost every day. We do have a new Low Carb Warm Paleo Cereal now too.

As a mindfulness practice I hand-break my walnuts and pecans. They are more evenly sized pieces which mean fewer fines and it only takes about 20 minutes.

  5. Bake at 275 degrees for 30 minutes. Turn down oven to 260 degrees.

  7. Return to oven and bake 30 minutes longer.
  8. Remove from oven, let cool until you can break up the larger chunks by hand.
  9. Return to oven, bake another 30 minutes, turn off oven, and then let cool in oven.
  10. Don’t throw away the fines, they are just as tasty as the rest of it.

Notes
  1. You can add desiccated coconut, sugar free dried cranberries, blueberries or anything else your little heart desires and this would change the nutritionals so beware-dried fruits have had their sugars concentrated so you need to add only a few. Example: ¼ C fresh blueberries is about 4g net carbs and ¼ C dried blueberries is about 29g net carbs. Big Difference. If you do decide to add any dried fruits cut them in little pieces-the smaller the pieces, the larger the surface area and this equals more flavor.
  2. Mix seeds or nuts you like. Go crazy.
