Pumpkin granola with chocolate chunks


Author: Aušra

Date:

Usually I make granola in summer, when it’s hot outside and no one wants to eat porridge. But when last week I tried new recipe for granola bars and I had only crumbs, my kids ate it just like usual granola for breakfast. And then they asked to make more granola. So I make my favourite at this moment granola. Kids’ favourite granola will have to wait a little bit. They enjoy this granola too, just for them I had to add chocolate with more sugar.

Pumpkin granola with chocolate chunks

Time needed:
Yields: 10 servings
Calories: 239 kcal / serving

Ingredients:
1 cup = 237 ml

  • 4 cups oat flakes
  • 2 tsps. cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp. dried ginger
  • pinch salt
  • 8 tbsps. pumpkin puree
  • 8 tbsps. honey or agave nectar (if honey is hard, first warm it)
  • 2 tbsps. coconut oil or oil of your choice (or just skip it)
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract (I used vanilla sugar)
  • 100 g chocolate

Directions:

  • Turn oven on and set 150°C temperature.
  • In a bowl mix oats, cinnamon, ginger and salt.
  • In another smaller bowl mix pumpkin puree, honey, coconut oil and vanilla extract.
  • Pour wet ingredients to the dry ingredients bowl and mix. No dry oats should be left.
  • Pour mixture in a baking tray, lined with baking paper. Put baking tray into the oven.
  • Bake about 30-40 minutes mixing every 10 minutes. Baking time depends on your oven, so bake till oats will be mild brown colour.

Kama miltų sausainiai su šokoladu

Kama flour cookies with chocolate

This time I used whole spelt flour, just because whole wheat four I couldn’t get in our store. And measured everything in grams because it’s more convenient for me. I was surprised that I had to use more flour that it was noted in original recipe. Maybe it’s because of spelt flour. So I suggest to add spelt or wheat flour gradually and to see if more is needed.

Cookies Puppies

At last I made these little puppies too. My daughter asked to give her something that she could treat her kindergarten group children. So good mother rolled up her sleeves and started to word ? This work was only pleasure. Of course it needed some time but these puppies are really worth it.

Favourite granola bars

For real – this is my favourite granola bars. I like especially to substitute 1 tablespoon of brown sugar with molasses sugar. My all family also likes them for snack and everytime these bars are gone, they miss them.

Edible playdough

My kids like to play with homemade playdough. Every weekend they play in the kitchen while I’m preparing something tasty. But one time when I saw my kids sitting and smiling with green mouths, I understood that something was wrong 🙂 So I made decision – prepare edible playdough. The recipes was selected long time ago, but time to prepare it came only now. It’s very easy to make and tasty to eat – if you like peanuts and sweetness. But don’t do my mistake, don’t prepare full amount, devide in half or even more. We ate a lot, but it still is on my pantry. Now it hardened, but we break some chunks and eat like candies. After a great play you can make small balls and dip in the melted chocolate – and you will have great candies.

Almond cake with mascarpone “Hello Kitty”

I’m happy and proud. This cake is not just tasty but very cute 🙂 It was made for my daughter’s 5th birthday. But presenting it only now because somewhere at this time my blog is celebrating 3 year old birthday and at the same time I celebrated my birthday anniversary. But this year birthday was different – I didn’t do anything, just celebrated 🙂
