SALTY & SWEET

Who does not love granola? I am a granola nut and have a selection to choose from but  LA-Style Granola recipe still reigns supreme! What makes this recipe different is that it’s sweet & salty a great combination. Maple syrup and spices complete the granola. Just a note, when I first made the granola I thought it tasted a bit too salty. however after serving with Almond milk, the balance of salty-sweet was perfect.

VIETNAMESE COFFEE

One of my favorite parts of dining on Vietnamese cuisine is the rich, sweet flavor of a Vietnamese coffee. At one point in time, I had a real Vietnamese coffee drip maker (update I just got a new one) and tried my hand at making these sweet and potent cups of coffee. Mine were never ever as good as the restaurant version. There also is a preferred coffee Cafe Du Monde to use for classic results.

COFFEE GRANOLA

Loving Vietnamese coffee lead me to a way to flavor granola with the same creamy, coffee sweetness. How? You begin with basic coffee ingredients of sweetned condensed milk and coffee. Next the basic granola components of rolled oats, cashews, pecans and pumpkin seeds. Flavor with cinnamon and cardomom. Melted coocnut oil is also mixed in with the granola mixture, completed.

Bake the granola on a standard half sheet pan lined with parchment paper or silicone baking mat. Bake the granola, watching over it during the 40 minute or so bake, giving it a mix a few times during baking for even browning. That’s it. You favorite coffee is now in your breakfast bowl. Top with sliced fresh fruit and Vanilla Almond Malk. Coffee is served. Store the granola in a glass sealed jar. Good Morning!
