Crunchy Coconut Granola

This granola is the perfect snack- it's crunchy, has a hint of sweetness, but unlike most granolas this one is full of healthy fats and low in sugar and carbs so it will actually keep you feeling full and prevent a blood sugar spike and crash.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup pecans, chopped

• 1 cup large, raw, unsweetened coconut flakes

• 1 cup slivered almonds

• 1/2 cup almond flour

• 3 Tbsp melted coconut oil

• 1 egg white

• 2 tsp cinnamon (use ceylon cinnamon if possible- it's great for blood sugar balance)

• 1/2 tsp honey, optional

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 325°F or 170°C.

2. Roughly chop pecans and add to a bowl.

3. Add coconut flakes, cinnamon, and almond flour and mix.

4. Pour melted coconut butter, honey, and egg white over the mixture and toss with a spoon until thoroughly coated.

5. Bake for 15 minutes, then toss with a spoon, and bake for another 5-10 minutes depending on how crunchy you like it.

6. Enjoy as a snack or as a topping for smoothies or yogurts.
