“It’s Up to You Today to Start Making Healthy Choices. Not Choices That Are Just Healthy for Your Body, but Healthy for Your Mind.” – Steve Maraboli
Yield: approx. 5 cups
Prep time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 20 minutes
Ingredients:
4 cups rolled oats (not quick or steel-cut; I also use gluten-free)
1/3 cup dried unsweetened coconut flakes
1/3 cup chopped nuts (pecans, almonds, etc.)
1/3 cup pepitas (pumpkin seeds), roasted and unsalted
2 tablespoons each ground orange peel (optional), chia seeds
A tiny pinch of finely ground sea salt (optional)
2 tablespoons each brown (stevia or monkfruit) sugar, unrefined coconut oil
1/8 to 1/4 cup pure maple syrup or honey
1/4 cup water
(Stevia- or monkfruit-sweetened dark chocolate chips)
Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Mix oats, nuts, seeds, and orange peel in a large bowl.
3. In a small saucepan over Low heat, mix brown sugar, oil, syrup or honey and water. Only heat until the oil is melted. Stir to combine.
4. Pour oil-mixture over dry ingredients and stir to combine.
5. Spread in an even layer over cookie sheet and bake about 20 minutes or until the oats look golden-brown. Let cool.
6. Toss with chocolate chips, if using, and store in an airtight glass jar on the container or in the fridge for up to 2 weeks (if it lasts that long!).
