Sourdough Granola is crunchy, sweet, and packed with protein. Sourdough Discard is the binder to this granola, giving it a bit of tang with added nutritional value. This recipe will become your go-to homemade granola recipe to snack on, layer into parfaits, or use for toppings on your favorite fruit desserts.

Hypoallergenic
Sourdough Granola is hypoallergenic for those with egg allergy and gluten intolerances. Sourdough Starter combines the granola and gives it a bit of tang along with reducing gluten contained in the Old Fashioned Oats.

In addition, Chia Seeds, a plant-based protein, are mixed into the granola giving this another layer of added nutritional value. Furthermore, according to the Mayo Clinic, “Chia Seeds are high in Omega-3 Fatty Acids and fiber.
These seeds have a similar Omega-3 Fatty Acid content as Flaxseed would (which would be a great replacement) and they can help with weight loss.” Finally, they are an excellent source of fiber, promote intestinal health, and contain heart-healthy fats. Chia Seeds provide not only an extra crunch to the granola but also health benefits.

Along with Sourdough Starter and Chia Seeds in the Sourdough Granola, this recipe contains an assortment of nuts, seeds, dried fruit, and Raw Honey. These ingredients are all high in nutritional content and contain a natural sweetener that your body is able to easily process.

In conclusion, Sourdough Granola is healthy, full of flavor, and has various textures. This recipe is geared towards those with egg allergy and gluten intolerances, however, if you have a nut allergy, this recipe can be easily adaptable to exclude the ingredients your body cannot tolerate. Enjoy this, recreate it, and share it with the ones you love the most!
