This looks absolutely gorgeous ! I love quinoa but I’ve tried it roasted. It looks like tiny popcorn
MMmmmmmmm… I MUST try this!
I love that this is really easy to do! Granola from the supermarket is always packed full of sugar and it’s such a shame when you can use beautiful maple syrup like this. I’m definitely going to make your recipe but I’m going to try sprouting some of the seeds first and then dehydrating them (to keep it all raw) might not taste any good but it’s an experiment!
This looks great! Is it strange if I tell you I can just smell it through the screen?! Smelling gooohood.
We need to meet up this year love. Hugs and take care, xxx
aaw thanks love!! <3
I love all things quinoa and this granola looks exceptionally delicious. I’ve made a few variations of my own quinoa granola before, but all the dried fruit really makes this recipe stand out. Just lovely!
