|
|
1/2 cup
|
Sunflower seeds
|
|
2 tbsp
|
Chia seeds
|
|
1/4 cup hulled
|
Hemp seeds, shelled
|
|
3 tbsp
|
Swerve Sweetener, confectioners
(add more if desired)
|
|
2 drop(s)
|
Stevia sweetener, liquid
(optional)

1 pinch

Salt
|
|
2 tbsp
|
Coconut oil
(melted)

1 tsp
|
Vanilla extract, pure

3 tbsp

Collagen peptides

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Mix first 5 ingredients in a bowl.
- Add coconut oil and vanilla and mix well.
- Add optional cacao nibs.
- Spread onto parchment lined baking sheet.
- Bake until coconut is golden brown. It happens quickly so every couple of minutes, check and stir.
- After this cools, break it up into chunks (if you used the collagen) or simply put into a jar.
- Store in the fridge or freezer.
Notes:
The collagen is optional but it binds the mixture so that you end up with chunks. Otherwise, it's more like granola or cereal.
You can also bake this in a square pan lined with parchment, and cut into bars. You must use the collagen in order to make it 'stick together'.
Each serving is about 1/2 cup each.
