  • 4 tbs honey, agave or maple syrup for vegan, or rice syrup for low fructose (not paleo)

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 150 degrees Celsius and line a baking tray with baking paper.

Add almonds, sunflower seeds, pepitas, chia and flax to a
blender and blend until coarse and all the same size then pour into large
mixing bowl.

Add the goji berries, cranberries, cacao nibs and coconut to
the same blender and do the same making sure that you don’t over blend and make
it sticky. You want then to all be the same size similar to the nuts and seeds.
Pour into the mixing bowl with the nuts and seeds.

Add the coconut sugar, maca, mesquite and cinnamon to the bowl and stir
thoroughly to combine then add the melted coconut oil and sweetener.

Mix with a spoon and then your fingers to make sure that
everything is coated in the honey and oil. Pour onto the baking tray and bake for 20 minutes. Give it a gentle stir half way through the
redistribute the mix and ensure that the outside bits don’t get burned.

Crumble it up while warm so that when it cools you have
small chunks, leave some big ones as they make great little snacks. Store in an
airtight container in the fridge or pantry.
