Chicken Free Paleo Nut & Seed Granola
This crunchy, golden granola is packed with four kinds of nuts, two types of seeds, and toasted coconut, making every handful a deeply satisfying mix of textures and warm spice. Coconut oil and maple syrup bind everything together, while cinnamon and ginger give it that cozy, aromatic depth you want in a morning bowl or afternoon snack. The trick to getting those satisfying clusters is pressing the mixture firmly onto the pan before baking and again right when it comes out of the oven — then leaving it completely alone to cool and crisp up. Grain-free eating doesn't mean settling for sad breakfasts, and this recipe proves it with every crunchy, caramel-edged bite. Toss in some dried cranberries or raisins once it's cooled for a little chew and natural sweetness that rounds out the whole thing beautifully. Store it in an airtight container and you've got a wholesome, ready-to-go option that works over coconut milk, alongside fresh fruit, or straight from the jar.
