Granola Clusters with Yogurt Drizzle

  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • ½ cup pumpkin seeds finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • ¼ cup flax seeds
  • ¼ cup coconut flakes
  • cup dried fruit I used dried mango, but cranberries, apples, etc will work

Instructions

Dried Apples with Black Currant and Cardamom Yogurt Dip

  • Preheat oven to 225 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Wash and dry apples. Using a sharp knife or mandolin, slice apples as thinly as possible (about ⅛” thick). Then place on a baking sheet in a single layer so they’re not touching.
  • Sprinkle evenly with cinnamon.
  • Bake for approximately 2 hours, turning halfway through. If they’re not yet crispy after 2 hours, continue baking until they start to crisp up. Allow to cool.
  • Make the yogurt dip by combining yogurt and cardamom in a small bowl. Stir well, then sprinkle with bee pollen or turmeric.
  • The apple chips only stay crisp for 24 hours or so, so it’s best eaten the same day.

Roasted Grapefruit with Whipped Raspberry Yogurt

  • Preheat broiler to high. Cut grapefruit in half and place face up on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Broil for 3-5 minutes, checking regularly, until grapefruit is slightly toasted and bubbly. Let rest.
  • Combine the yogurt, cream, vanilla extract and beetroot powder in a medium bowl. Using an electric mixer, beat on high for 2-3 minutes until it starts to form soft peaks (note: it won’t be as stiff as whipped cream, for that you’ll need to add more cream.)
  • Once grapefruit has cooled somewhat, place it in a bowl and spoon the whipped yogurt mixture over top. Garnish with fresh thyme and a drizzle of honey.

Granola Clusters with Yogurt Drizzle

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine all granola ingredients in a medium bowl and mix well.
  • Pour the granola onto the line baking sheet and spread in an even layer.
  • Bake 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway, until lightly golden. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
  • Meanwhile, make the yogurt drizzle by whisking yogurt and powdered sugar in a small bowl. Add 1 teaspoon water if you prefer a smoother consistency.
  • Once the granola has cooled, use your hands to break it into bite sized clusters.
  • Drizzle all over the clusters and chill for 30 minutes before serving.
