My Uncle (Clark) and his friend (Hopkins) just came out with a jalapeno pepper sauce called Chesapeake Bay, and it is getting rave reviews! I thought it would be super fun to collaborate with them so we can learn and grow together!

GRAIN-FREE (Paleo / Vegan) GRANOLA


Today we’re making grain-free granola! Here’s the recipe:

If you create this recipe please post a pic on instagram and tag me @abeautifulhorizon so I can see! 😀

Preheat oven to 375F

1 Cup Walnut pieces
1 Cup Sunflower seeds
1 Cup Almond slivers
1 Cup Cashew pieces
(Or 4 cups total of your favorite nuts and seeds)
1/4 Cup Maple Syrup
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg
(Or 1 teaspoon of a similar spice mix)

Mix Ingredients. Bake 10 minutes. Stir. Bake another 5 minutes. Allow to cool completely. Store in an air tight container for up to a week -if it lasts that long.

Serve as a cereal with cashew milk, coconut milk, or other milk of choice. It also tastes amazing with fresh or dried fruit or an extra drizzle of almond butter or maple syrup if you’re really looking for a sweet treat. 🙂

CASHEW MILK RECIPE

We’re making cashew milk! This is an easy and quick recipe. All you need are cashews, water, and a good blender and BAM! There’s your cashew milk! Now, if you don’t have a high speed blender you may need to let your cashews sit in the water for a few hours (1-6 hours) on the counter to soften before blending. Some people say it’s actually easier for your body to absorb the nutrients from the nuts if you do this!

Recipe:
1/4 – 1/2 Cups Cashews (I used 1/2)
3 cups water
Blend on high for 2 minutes.

More cashews will produce a creamier milk, but less is fine and will wind up cheaper. It’s really up to you! Shake before each use- no emulsifiers here! 🙂

Some fun add-ins would be a pinch of salt, a dash of vanilla extract, a shake of cinnamon, and/or a splash of maple syrup! YUM! I usually keep mine plain and easy, but it’s fun to add things in sometimes! I hope my videos inspire you to try new things and not be afraid to experiment!

Making your own cashew milk from scratch is really so simple. Let me know if you try it! Post a pic on instagram and tag me: @abeautifulhorizon!
