Coconut Lime Granola

March 16, 2016 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design No Comments

Hi Everyone,

One thing I love to make that I haven’t made in about a year is granola.  It’s a great way to add crunch to yogurt, pancakes or to have as a quick snack.  What’s great about granola is that you can use leftover nuts and dried fruit that you may have lying around the pantry.  When I bake I tend to only use a half cup of nuts etc… so I always have leftovers.  What is also great is that you can use any kind of nut or dried fruit you like.  It’s all about what you love!  For today’s granola recipe I made Coconut Lime Granola.

Coconut Lime Granola

This granola is crunchy, slightly sweet and has a wonderful coconut flavor and just a hint of lime.  I had key lime juice in the fridge, so I thought why not add a little bit of it to my granola for an extra punch of flavor?  This granola is fabulous on yogurt.  I find it very filling.  When I was photographing the photos I was eating quite a bit of it.  I ended up to full to eat breakfast.  I kind of have a thing for granola.

Coconut Lime Granola


For the granola I used old fashion oats, slivered almonds, coconut flakes and cashews.  I love, love, love cashews!  For the wet ingredients I used coconut oil, maple syrup, coconut sugar, key lime juice and coconut extract.  You just warm the ingredients in a sauce pan and pour over your oatmeal mixture.  Bake in the oven for 40 minutes, flipping half way through and let the granola cool.  The smell of the granola baking is out of this world. When you smell it, it’s pretty much done.  Once it is cool, I tossed in more coconut flakes, dried pineapple and dried mango. Yum!

Recipe type: Granola
Cuisine: American
Serves: 26
Ingredients
  • Dry Ingredients:
  • 5 cups oatmeal
  • 1¼ cups unsweetened coconut
  • 2 cups cashews
  • 1¾ cups slivered almonds
  • 2 tbsp. Flax and Chia Seed Blend
  • Wet ingredients:
  • ½ cup coconut oil
  • 2 tbsp. lime juice
  • ½ cup maple syrup

  • ½ cup dried pineapple
  • ½ cup dried mango
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees
  2. Line a baking sheet with Silpat or parchment paper
  3. In a large bowl; add oatmeal, unsweetened coconut, cashews, slivered almonds and flax and chia seed blend. Mix until well combined.
  4. In a small sauce pan, over low heat add coconut oil, lime juice, maple syrup and coconut sugar. Mix constantly until sugar and coconut oil is melted together. About 5 minutes. Take off heat and stir in coconut extract.
  5. Pour wet mixture, while still warm over the oatmeal mixture. Mix until well combined. I stirred for almost 5 minutes. You want everything wet. Pour onto baking sheet.
  6. Bake in oven for 20 minutes, flip, bake for another 20 minutes. Turn oven of and open the door a crack in the oven. Let the granola sit for about a half hour to dry out more.

Coconut Lime Granola

This recipe is so tasty and to boot it is also vegan.  You can make it gluten-free by adding gluten-free oats.  I store my granola in a canister and place in my pantry for easy grabbing.  It’s so wonderful on so many things.  Add some granola in your cookies, top on pancakes, pop in muffins.  The possibilities are endless.

You should try making granola.  It’s relatively inexpensive to make and you know what ingredients are in it.  Plus I think it is fun to make.

Have a great day!

Toodles,

Jennifer

Hello, hello! Hope you are having a good week. Onl Hello, hello! Hope you are having a good week. Only two more days to go till the weekend. Woohoo!
🌸
I want to share with you my new Worlds Largest Colossal Down Alternative Blanket from @downlitebedding.  Oh my gosh, I am in love! I have such a tall bed that the blanket hangs so beautifully over the sides. Plus your significant other can grab as much of the blanket as they like because there is plenty to share. This blanket is also known as the “The Marriage Saver”.
🌸
I’ve been sleeping with a light blanket over me because I get so hot, but sometimes I wake up so cold. I was afraid that Colossal Size Alternative Blanket would be to hot, but it wasn’t. I’ve had the perfect night sleep. I’m shocked I don’t wake up hot. It’s so perfect. I honestly couldn’t be happier with the blanket.
🌸
Downlite Bedding was kind enough to give my followers a 20% discount code: DYGEN20.
🌸
Do you get hot or cold when you sleep?

Happy Wednesday! I have had a lot of DM’s recent Happy Wednesday! I have had a lot of DM’s recently asking if Woody, the woodpecker is still going to his nesting box every night. Yes he is! I watch for him everyday. He comes at dusk. I can tell the days are getting longer. He used to come at 4:20 and now it’s 5:52pm. Yes I check the clock. I’m weird that way. So Woody has been with us since January 8th. My husband and I sit outside on the weekends together waiting for him to go to bed. Is this what happens when you get older?
🐦
I updated my bench for Spring. I’m really loving yellow. I’m glad I went with that color for Spring. The yellow goes perfect with my new reversible spring pillow that I got from @krumpetshomedecor. The pillow has the most adorable black pom poms on it and where the flower is it has a secret pocket. I love the secret pocket.
🌷
The pillow would be so cute to give as a gift. You could put a card in the secret pocket. The other side of the pillow is black with white polka dots with an egg on it that says “be happy”. So adorable.
🌷
The reversible spring pillow is the Krumpets Home Decor deal of the week.  Plus you can use my discount code for an additional 10% off:  PBANDP. The link is in my bio.
🌷
If you could be any animal for 1 day, what would it be?

Hello Tuesday! We’ve had some nice weather this Hello Tuesday!  We’ve had some nice weather this week. It must have hit 70 yesterday. I’ll enjoy it while I can. Next week it’s supposed to back in the 50’s with chance of rain. Well at least I won’t have to worry about watering my garden.
🐰
I’m sharing with you one of my Easter tablescapes. I wanted to go simple. I feel when there’s too much on the table, you have a hard time seeing the people across from you. Plus my table is only 5’ long, so I don’t have a lot of space.
🐰
I’m loving the blues and greens. It’s such a pretty color for Spring. I had a whole blue tablescape idea in my mind, but I’m having problems finding pieces that I like. I sure miss Pier1. That was my go to place for table setting decor.
🐰
What are your favorite colors for Spring?

Happy March 1st! Can you believe 19 more days till Happy March 1st! Can you believe 19 more days till Spring and 14 more days until daylight savings. Oh the pure signs of warm weather and sunshine are coming.
🌸
I sure had a busy weekend. We had 5 yards of top soil delivered and my husband wheel barreled it all to the backyard. My new garden bed is just about ready for planting. I’m so excited!
🌸
Yesterday I worked on a bunch of photos to share this week. I must have formatted over a 100 pictures. No, I won’t be sharing that many. It’s just hard to find the right one. I’m sure you know what I mean.
🌸
I’m sharing with you my top 4 photos for the month of February.  I can’t wait to see what is in store for March, because I have no idea. Lol
🌸
What are you looking most forward to this month?

Hi Everyone! The weather is starting to warm up h Hi Everyone!  The weather is starting to warm up here and I have Spring fever!  #sponsored I’ve been working in the garden beds, planting annuals and enjoying some fresh air and sunshine.
🌸
I freshened up my gorgeous patio set that I got from @rstbrands. I dressed up my table by adding some Ranunculus and a cute little bunny to a tray. Doesn’t scream Spring?
🌸
I also added some throw pillows and a cute blanket to keep you warm on a chilly evening. The Yuri 4 piece patio set is made out of certified eucalyptus wood has held up so beautifully with the heavy rains and winds.
🌸
I love the shade of blue of the cushions, it reminds me of the sunny blue skies. The cushions are also so comfortable to sit on. The best part is that the covers have zippers on them so you can take the covers off and wash them.
🌸
Spring fever is hitting me hard this year and I can’t wait to enjoy the great outdoors.
🌸
Do you get Spring fever?

I’m sharing with you my new dog bone container that I got from @outshine_co. Oh my gosh Sampson loves it! Mom, move out of the way, I’m taking over!!
🐶
Hi all! This is Sammy here! I just have to tell you my Mom now has no excuse not to have bones in the house anymore. This beautiful container hold 5 boxes of my favorite Trader Joe’s bones. My Mom also needs to know that carrots, celery or a piece of lettuce doesn’t cut it! Bones is what I must have!
🐶
The container is made of a nice heavy coated carbon steel and holds 12lbs or 54 cups of dog food and bones. 🤩Yes thank you! That is what I’m taking about. The only thing is, the lid is so well fitted and airtight that I can’t get my paws in it. What’s up with that? Not fair! I need access to bones at all times.
🐶
My Mom loves the container too because it looks pretty on her counter and even comes with a sticker that she can write my name on. I absolutely love this container! Thank you Outshine Co. for sending this to me, I mean my Mom.
🐶
Thank your for letting me take over! I miss and love you guys!  Love Sampson!

Happy Wednesday! Half way through the week. I’m Happy Wednesday!  Half way through the week. I’m sharing with you, possibly my last look of my living room in it’s winter decor. I am so ready to add some color.
🪴
Depending on what is going on this weekend, I hoping to go to Homegoods for maybe a new blanket and some pillows. The only thing what color? I’m almost gravitating towards pink?
🪴
Though, yellow may look nice with the green plants. However, I do have so many pillows. Maybe I should look for pillow covers? Less storage. Pillows take up so much room. Oh the decisions.
🪴
I’ve seen some of you share pillow covers from Hobby Lobby. I’ve never seen them at my store, but I’ll do a search when I’m there? I guess that means I’m hitting up Hobby Lobby too. 😂
🪴
Instead of my daily question, I just want to wish and hope everyone is safe with this crazy weather.

Happy Monday! Hope you had a nice weekend. I didn Happy Monday!  Hope you had a nice weekend. I didn’t do a heck of a lot. It was kind of relaxing. I binge watched Friends and watched the movie Fools Gold with Kate Hudson and Mathew McConaughey.
🐰
Now that Valentines is over, it’s officially time for spring, at least in my mind. The weather may say otherwise, but I’ve been craving spring colors in my home. I went pretty neutral in my living room for winter, but I think I’m going to add some pastels. Now what color to add?
🐰
Last year if you followed me, I spent months trying to decide on what color to use. Ugh, I think I’m in the same boat again this year. I like yellows because it’s a happy color, but I also like pinks and blues. Oh the decisions.
🐰
I haven’t seem to much inspiration in the stores, though Target seems to have yellows and corals, plus a lot of neutrals. I’m seeing a lot of boho and woods. I do like woods with greenery.
🐰
What color doing you like to use in your home for Spring?
