🔪 How to make keto granola

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking tray with non stick spray or line with parchment paper. Set aside.
   
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine all the nuts, almond flour, seeds, shredded coconut, spices & salt.
   
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg white, monkfruit & vanilla extract until the egg whites are frothy but have not started to form peaks.
   
4. Pour over granola mixture.
   
5. Stir with a rubber spatula until the dry ingredients are moistened.
   
6. Spread your homemade granola mixture in an even layer onto the prepared baking sheet.
   
7. Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes or until the granola is starting to turn golden brown.
8. Remove from the oven, stir the granola to release the extra moisture and pat back down, bake for an additional 5 minutes.
   
9. Remove pan from oven and allow granola to cool completely and store in an airtight container.

👩‍🍳 Chef Tip

• The smaller the cookie sheet, the thicker the layer of granola will be. By spreading the granola on a larger rimmed baking sheet, the baking time may be shorter. If you smell toasted granola, immediately pull the pan from the oven.
• Chop the nuts, THEN measure them. ½ cup of nuts, chopped is less than ½ cup of chopped nuts.
