Ingredients
- 6 large pitted dates, soaked for 2 hours, then drained
- 1 large raw beet
- 1/2 cup filtered water
- 1 tablespoon melted virgin coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch of Celtic sea salt
- 1 cup rolled oats, soaked for 30 minutes
- 1/2 cup raw sunflower seeds
- 1/2 cup shelled hemp seeds
- 1/3 cup dried goldenberries (or dried cranberries or raisins)
Instructions
-
Blend the beet, dates, water, oil, cinnamon, and salt in your high-speed blender until smooth.
-
In a large bowl, mix the oats, seeds, and goldenberries together. Pour the blended beet and date mixture over them, and stir until evenly coated.
-
Line two dehydrator mesh screens with non-stick sheets or parchment paper, then spread the granola in an even layer on each.
-
Dehydrate at 115 degrees for about 12 hours, then peel the layers off the sheets, turn over, and place directly on the mesh screens on the wet side. Dehydrate for another 12 hours, until dry and crispy. (If you don't have a dehydrator, bake at 375°F (190°C) for 10 to12 minutes, or until browning but not burning.
-
Store in a sealed container, and enjoy with almond milk or as a healthy trail mix.
