Buckwheat is one of those elusive ingredients that intimidated me when I first learned about it, but the more I cook with it, the fonder of it I become (it’s especially great in our Buckwheat Crepes!). It’s wholesome, gluten-free, and versatile, and it provides a delicious nutty flavor. Plus, it makes extra-crunchy granola, which happens to be my thing. Let’s bake! This granola is simple, requiring just 10 ingredients to make. It starts with an even mixture of oats and buckwheat groats, but you can easily use all buckwheat groats if you prefer (I just prefer mixing the two for some texture). Next come nuts and coconut, a little cinnamon for warmth, and coconut sugar and maple syrup for natural sweetness. This granola cooks a little longer at a lower temperature to get an even golden-brown color and super-crunchy texture. This is what we call granola perfection. I wish you could smell it through the screen (swoon). We hope you LOVE this recipe.
