Ingredients
  

  • WET mixture:
  • - 1 frozen packet of Acai* available at Wholefoods and other health stores
  • - 1 cup organic Thompson raisins
  • - ¾ cup raw coconut nectar or maple syrup
  • - Juice of one lemon
  • - 1 Tbs. vanilla extract
  • - 1 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • - ¼ cup sunflower seeds soaked for 3 hours and rinsed
  • - A pinch of high quality sea salt to taste (optional)
  • * Please note: Acai is a fat-containing fruit so it digests pretty well with seeds. I don't recommend using apples or other fruits for this recipe.
  • DRY mixture:
  • - 1 cup Goji Berries*
  • - 1 cup sunflower seeds soaked for 3 hours and rinsed
  • - 1 cup pumpkin seeds soaked for 3 hours and rinsed
  • - 2 cups almonds soaked 14-28 hours and rinsed
  • - 3 cups pecans soaked for 2 hours and rinsed

Instructions
 

  • Please note: dried fruit combines well with nuts and seeds.
  • Don’t get bogged down with all the sprouting times!
  • Just remember to soak the almonds overnight, then remember to soak the other nuts a few hours before you make the granola.
  • In a blender, blend the wet mixture until smooth.
  • Chop all the nuts in the dry mixture (keeping as chunky as you like your granola!) then add them to a large mixing bowl, along with the Goji berries.
  • Pour the wet mixture on top and mix well.
  • Spread the granola on Teflex covered over the dehydrator trays and dehydrate at 110 degrees F for about 8 hours. Flip and keep dehydrating for another 8-10 hours, or until the granola is crunchy.
  • Break into pieces and store in an airtight container in the fridge. The granola will harden in the fridge!
