6tablespoonssugar substitute (Swerve)granular or powdered
1egg whitewhipped
¼cupbuttermelted
1tablespoonvanilla extract
1tablespoonCeylon cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat oven to 325F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
Add the nuts, seeds, flaxseed, and sweetener to a large mixing bowl. Toss to mix.
1 cup sliced almonds, 1 cup chopped hazelnuts, 1 cup chopped pecans, ⅓ cup pepitas, ⅓ cup sunflower seeds, 2 tablespoons chia seeds, ½ cup flaxseed meal, 6 tablespoons sugar substitute (Swerve)
Melt the butter, then whisk in the cinnamon and vanilla extract.
Whip the egg white in a separate bowl until it is foamy.
1 egg white
Add the egg white and butter mixture to the bowl. Stir until the nuts are all evenly damp.
Divide the mixture between the two prepared baking sheets and spread out thinly.
Bake 15 to 18 minutes, rotating the pans halfway.
Remove pans from oven and allow to cool completely, then break the granola apart. The granola will become more crisp as it cools.
Notes
You can mix and match nuts as you prefer. I have substituted walnuts for the hazelnuts when I couldn't find any at my local store, and still loved the result!
