Have you ever noticed how something homemade fills you with love, and others with nourishment that satisfies not only the body but the heart as well? This yummy little fresh berry, sprouted granola and greek yogurt morning parfait, a beautiful, yet simple breakfast, will leave everyone in your household feeling fulfilled on many different levels. Stressed from running out of options to feed my tree-nut allergic child something healthy and delicious for breakfast, I was inspired to try my hand at homemade granola-no recipe, no measurements, just off the top of my head. I knew what I wanted my ideal granola to consist of. I needed seeds bursting with tons of nutrients, the highest quality oil to bind everything together, a natural sweetener and oats, of course. So, that’s what I grabbed. First, a big scoop of raw oats. Then, smaller scoops of sprouted sunflower seeds and sprouted pumpkin seeds. Then another smaller scoop of sesame seeds. Wanting to keep it simple, I stopped there and drizzled melted ghee and grade B maple syrup over everything. Gave it a good stir, spread it out evenly on a parchment lined baking sheet and placed it in a 350 degree oven for ten to twelve minutes, with a gentle stir every few minutes to make sure the entire mixture was evenly browned. Once our kitchen filled with a heavenly aroma, I knew it was ready. Out came the most beautiful homemade granola. That was the hard part in my mind and it wasn’t hard at all. In fact, it was amazingly easy….and fun. Off to the side that went while I set about constructing the rest. First, about a cup or less of two percent plain Greek yogurt and then a layer of sliced fresh strawberries, blueberries and blackberries. Then, another little spoon of yogurt, more blackberries, blueberries and sliced strawberries then……the sprouted, homemade granola. I placed it in front of my precious little drowsy boys and were they surprised. It was new, it was colorful, and it tasted wonderful and it was full of so many nutrients present in every ingredient I added. Now off to figure out the measurements so I can post the recipe and all of the amazing nutritional benefits in the recipes section for all to enjoy! xxo!
