Directions
- Preheat the oven to 300 Degrees F/ 150 Degrees C with two racks evenly spaced.
- Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Peel and chop the pineapple into 1 inch cubes, you need 200g of pineapple cubes.
- Make sure the dates are pitted and roughly chop them.
- Melt the coconut oil and measure 150ml in a measuring jug.
- Squeeze two tablespoons of orange juice from the orange and place into the bowl of your food processor.
- Add the pineapple cubes, chopped dates, vanilla, and cinnamon to the food processor too.
- Blend until everything is mixed together well.
- Pour in the melted coconut oil and blend until smooth.
- Roughly chop the whole almonds and the macadamia nuts and add to a large bowl. Add the flaked almonds, coconut flakes, sunflower seeds and salt. Mix together well.
- Next spoon the wet ingredients on top of the dry ingredients and mix well until everything is combined.
- Divide the "Paleonola" onto the two lined baking sheets and spread it into a thin single layer.
- Place the trays in the oven to cook for 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until golden brown.
- Toss the granola about every 20 minutes and rotate the trays at the one hour mark. Watch the granola like a hawk in the last half hour—it can go from golden brown to burnt in a blink of an eye.
- When the granola is golden brown, take the trays out of the oven and allow to cool to room temperature.
- Pack your "Paleonola" in an airtight container and snack when you fancy!
