Paleo Granola is a gluten free granola with coconut as its main flavor. Always people use Oats as main ingredient, but for a change i used coconut. Look here to know more about low carb recipes.
Granola is often taken as breakfast with a glass of milk. Usually it has rolled oats, almonds and honey. Various types of currants and other nuts are also added.
In India, we would always have deep fried spicy mixture as snack, that’s made of omapodi, boondhi, poha, nuts and some raisins. Since when I started paleo, I missed this snack. So I thought of making healthy and yummy, So here is the my baked savory paleo granola. It can even be made sweet, by adding 2 tbsp of sugar instead of spices.
Here I used coconut as main flavor. Used almonds and walnut, flax seed and melon seeds. It is totally your choice to make a different flavor or add some other nuts and seeds, it’s based on your taste.
