  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla

  • 1 TBS HONEY

OPTIONAL

  • 1/2 cup freeze dried strawberries

  • Preheat oven to 300 F. Place almonds and dates in a food processor and blend until combined. The almonds should be in smaller pieces but not turned into flour. Transfer into bowl to mix in coconut, cinnamon, vanilla, and oats.
  • In saucepan, melt butter and honey over low heat. Stir until they begin to caramelize. Pour butter/honey over granola mixture and toss well.
