Directions

Preheat oven to 250F.

In a small bowl, mix the ground pecans, cinnamon, monkfruit and water into a paste. Set aside.

Place the remaining ingredients on a parchment lined baking sheet and toss together.

Crumble the pecan paste over the other ingredients and give everything a quick toss.

Bake the cereal mix 10 min.

Pull the baking sheet out of the oven, and give the nut cereal a good stir. Spread it out again and return to the oven for another 10 min.

Turn off the oven and leave the nut cereal mix in the oven another 5-10 min to crisp up and dry completely.

Store the cocoa cinnamon cereal in an airtight container.

Enjoy with unsweetened milk alternative, on low carb yogurt or as a crunchy nutty garnish.
