I developed this recipe after buying a similar nutty granola for overnight guests.  I have also been trying to find lower carb alternatives for my husband and I.  The 8 oz bag of nutty granola that I bought was almost $8.00 and after looking at the ingredients, I realized that this granola could be made much more economically.

  • ½ cup each raw chopped walnuts
  • ½ cup raw sliced almonds
  • ½ cup roasted, salted pepitas (pumpkin seeds)
  • ½ cup roasted, salted sunflower seeds
  • *You can swap the above with any nuts that you prefer.  If you do not use salted, roasted nuts, you can add ¼  tsp salt
  • ½ cup raisins
  • ½ cup unsweetened coconut
  • ½ cup mixed chia, hemp and whole flax seeds (I use Badia Whole Trilogy Health Seeds)
  • ¼ cup honey
  1. Place all ingredients in a mixing bowl and mix well until all is combined.
  2. Place on baking sheet that has been covered with tin foil and sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.
  3. Bake in oven at 325 degrees for 15 minutes, stirring once during that time.
  4. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
  5. Crumble into pieces and store in air tight container.  This granola will stay fresh in the container for 2 -3 weeks, if it isn’t eaten up before that!
