【Vegan🌱Homemade Healthy Granola】

The last time I shared my granola recipe, it was oven-bake, but this time, I'm sharing the easy version of the same granola with use of a frying pan so that you don't have to worry about your granola being burnt out in the oven from the edge to edge.

This recipe is:

Vegan
White sugar free
Gluten free

And highly nutritious since it contains fiber, vitamins and minerals from oats, nuts and buckwheat groats. Buckwheat groats give it nice crunchy texture when you chew it.

Perefect for quick breakfast and healthy choice of snacks🍀

This is the buckwheat groats before soacking in water overnight.
Please soak some of them in water overnight before you make granola.
It becomes quite slimy and you want to get rid of sliminess by rinsing off.
Then, roast in your frying pan without oil.
！！！CAUSTION！！！

Never use a spatural to cook raw buckwheat!

At first, you find it a bit sticky, but Do NOT use spatula because it breaks the groats out if you use it.
It eventually starts drying out and is naturally taken off from the frying pan after cooking enough. The key point is to shake the frying pan so groats don't stay at the same spot and prevents from burning out.

Transfer to a plate when the groats become nicely golden brown. (Kasha)

Do the same to oats.

Roast until golden brown.

Add in Kasha to combine together.

In a small pot, heat nut butter, maple syrup, pure vanilla extract and salt and mix.

※In case you are allergic to nuts, just remove nut butter and add more maple syrup instead.
