I always make extra batches of this “grainless” granola and keep it in my pantry in a sealed air-tight container. It makes it a quick and easy breakfast when you’re in a hurry.
- 1/2 cup golden flax seeds
- 1/2 cups sunflower seeds, shelled
- 1/2 cup raw almonds
- 1/2 cup dehydrated coconut flakes, unsweetened
- 3/4 tsp ground cinnamon
Process all ingredients in a food processor on high, until nut and seeds are reduced to a grain-like texture; about 1-2 minutes, checking often. Once the texture you want is achieved, add cinnamon and process until mixed through; a few short pulses will do the trick.
Serving size is 1/4 to 1/2 cup. Serve cold or warm with milk and sprinkle with blueberries, if desired.
Makes 4 to 8 servings.

Hi, was wondering…don’t the seeds and nuts need to be soaked and dried prior to processing them? Would the recipe change at all if I did that step first? Thanks, this sounds like a delicious yogurt topper!
Carrie, yes it would be good if possible to “soak and dry” the nuts prior to making the recipe. Soaking the nuts unlocks the nutrients in them, allowing your body to better absorb and digest them. See Raw Nuts: How to Soak and Why for more info. The recipe would not need to be altered in any way if you soak (and dry) the nuts first.
