Gingerbread Granola

Christmas is very soon and for everyone who needs a last minute gift or something small to bring to a dinner, this homemade granola is the perfect fit. It's easy to make, looks pretty and you can use what you have at home.

To make it Christmas worthy, I've made it taste like gingerbread. The perfect flavor for this festive season!

And for anyone who has already made or bought all their gifts, it makes also the perfect gift for yourself.

There's nothing more to say but merry Christmas and a happy new year!

GINGERBREAD GRANOLA
vegan - glutenfree - free from refined sugar - oil free

Ingredients
2 cups (glutenfree) oats
1/2 cup quinoa puffs
2 tbsp chia seeds
1/3 cup pumpkin seeds
1/2 cup sliced almonds
2 tbsp cacao powder
1/3 cup maple syrup
3 tbsp brown almond butter (I used THIS)
1 tbsp gingerbread spice
1 tsp dried ginger (optional when your gingerbread spice already contains ginger)

Preparation
1. Combine all the dry ingredients in a bowl.
2. Add the maple syrup and almond butter and stir until everything is evenly coated.
3. Spread it on a parchment paper and bake it at 120°C circulating air for 20 min.

Enjoy!

Tip: Double the amount (use 2 baking sheets otherwise it won't be as crunchy!) and freeze it. It will last about 3 months in the freezer. Otherwise you can use it up to 1 month!

To decorate the jars I used some homemade dried oranges and a natural band as well as a chalkboard sticker. You can also make a handwritten tag if you're in a rush :) Get creative!
