If you're a fan of crunchy, nutty breakfasts that feel indulgent but perfectly fit your keto lifestyle, this Keto Peanut Butter Granola is your new go-to. Packed with healthy fats and protein, this granola is low in carbs and free from added sugars, making it an ideal start to your day or a delicious snack.
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a food processor, pulse the almonds and pecans until they are broken into smaller pieces, but not completely ground.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped nuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, chia seeds, and shredded coconut.
In a separate microwave-safe bowl, combine the peanut butter and coconut oil. Microwave for 30 seconds or until the mixture is easily stirrable.
Add the powdered erythritol, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt to the peanut butter mixture and mix until smooth.
Pour the peanut butter mixture over the dry ingredients and mix well, ensuring that everything is evenly coated.
Spread the granola mixture in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even browning. Watch closely towards the end to prevent burning.
Once the granola is golden brown, remove it from the oven and let it cool completely. It will crisp up as it cools.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
Notes
For a nut-free version, replace the almonds and pecans with additional seeds such as hemp or flax seeds.The granola can be enjoyed with low-carb yogurt or almond milk for a complete breakfast.Keep an eye on the granola as oven temperatures may vary and it can go from golden to burnt quite quickly.
