Almond Butter Grain-Free Granola

I absolutely love Purely Elizabeth's Almond Butter granola, but it's pricey and I thought I could make a copycat version that would satisfy my current obsession with this crunchy, delicious grain-free mix.



 

This Almond Butter Grain-Free Granola is a delightfully crunchy mixture of nuts, seeds, coconut and vanilla protein powder to boost the protein content. It's also refined sugar and grain- free.

I love to sprinkle it on chia pudding, yogurt, cottage cheese or top a smoothie for added crunch.

You can use any nuts or seeds in this mix, but I especially love almonds, cashews, pecans, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, chia seeds and hemp seeds. The only thing you need to be concerned about is the actual ratio of wet to dry ingredients if you change the nuts and seed combination.
