Feeding kids is about as easy as nailing Jell-O to a tree or perhaps herding cats?! My kids have always eaten the Real Food lifestyle, which means no junk. But it still poses its challenges! They seem to change their minds daily to make it even more fun. One day they are begging for cheesy eggs, the next day they can’t stand eggs, then its back to eggs that weekend. Oy!

So recipe creation can be tricky, but this Nutty Grain-Free Granola Clusters recipe has been a big hit! Bonus: it lasts for two weeks in an airtight container, and you can make a double batch and freeze half! #momwin

Makes 16 servings, roughly 1/4 cup each

Ingredients

1 cup raw almonds
1 cup raw cashews
1 cup raw walnuts
1/2 cup raw pumpkin seeds
1/4 cup raw sunflower seeds
Zest and juice from 1/2 medium orange
1/2 cup raw honey
1 T ground cinnamon
1 tsp organic vanilla extract
1 tsp fine sea salt

Instructions

Preheat oven to 300°F.
Roughly chop the almonds in a food processor on the pulse setting, the pieces should remain fairly large.
Add cashews, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds to the food processor.
Continue to pulse until all ingredients are roughly chopped.
Add the chopped mixture to a medium mixing bowl along with the remaining ingredients and stir well to combine.
Spread the mixture on a Silpat baking sheet.
Bake for 10 minutes.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven (carefully!), stir the granola, and return to the oven for 10 minutes more. Nuts will brown slightly.
Allow to cool for at least 1o minutes, then break into kid-sized clusters.
Store grain-free granola clusters in an airtight container for up to two weeks.

Hi, my name is Kate.

I love food. Real food. We eat all of the things that nursing school taught me were bad for you: butter, eggs, bacon, and raw milk.

I am a Nurse, a Mom, and a Real Food loving blogger. Just trying to save the world.
