Directions

Preheat oven to 250F.

In a medium bowl, toss together the Brasil nuts, pecans, coconut and seeds.

In a small bowl, whisk the water, maple syrup, stevia and vanilla extract. Drizzle mixture over the seeds and nuts, and toss well.

Empty the nut and seed mix onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Spread it out on the sheet and bake for 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 maple nut cereal in an airtight container.

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