Raw Buckwheat Granola

Here is a recipe I have refined for the past few months. You can buy some versions of this at the health food store, but they are all very sweet and often with agave. This one is not sweetened and I find it very fulfilling and sweet enough with a drop of stevia in the almond milk and a banana.


Buckwheat Granola

Recipe By : Chef Shobhan
Serving Size : 10 - 15 Preparation Time :0:05 mins (sprouting time 2-3 days)


Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
4 cups raw buckwheat groats -- sprouted
1 1/2 cups pumpkin seeds -- sprouted
1 1/2 cups sunflower seeds -- sprouted
1 cup chopped almonds -- sprouted and dehydrated

Soak the buckwheat groats overnight, then begin rinsing them twice a day for the next 24 hours. After that leave them without water covered in a colandar for another 8 to 24 hours or until little sprouts are growing out of them.

Soak the pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds overnight on the night before the buckwheat will be sprouted.

Mix all the seeds together with the buckwheat and spread on teflex sheets in your dehydrator. Dehydrate overnight or for about 8 hours. When the seeds and buckwheat are dry, pour them into a large mason jar with a lid.

Add the chopped almonds and mix.

Serve with almond milk and your favorite chopped fruit. My personal favorite is banana, but you can use any fruit you like.
