Full Disclosure, apart from the receiving the products, I’ve not bee compensated for this post. Any opinions I’ve expressed are completely my own. Check out Jess’s other products - including the coconut oil here. I’ve eaten my original coconut macaroon granola pretty much every day for the last few months. I’m so addicted that I was starting to worry I might never eat anything else for breakfast again. So I started thinking about variations of my original recipe (baby steps people - you can’t expect me to wean myself off, straight onto egg-white omelettes). Whilst I was having a think, a Facebook message popped up (because we all do our ’thinking’ whilst surfing FB right?). It was from an old school friend - Jessica. The last time I saw her was a few years ago on the morning after a particularly unruly girls night out (heavily pregnant at the time, she intelligently hadn’t joined us on a night that started out as a gossip over a couple of drinks, and ended up in a ‘hunt’ for the perfect Cosmopolitan, and our faces painted with boot-polish moustaches - yes my head still hurts thinking about the resulting hangover). Anyway, it turns out that since then, she’s started her own holistics company - using Organic Neal’s Yard products in her treatments. Being the lovely girl she is - she sent on some goodies for me to try. Excitedly going through my goodie bag, I found not only gorgeous beauty products, but coconut oil and herbal tea too! The coconut oil and the beautiful, fresh scent of the tea & beauty products brought me straight back to thinking of my granola recipe, and the idea to pep it up with some fresh raspberry flavour. So here we have my Raspberry Macaroon Granola. Topped with greek yogurt, a little honey and a few fresh raspberries. I’ve now got a new breakfast addiction. The little pink raspberry macaroons are fresh and chewy, and work so well with the crunchy granola. My kids basically stood in the kitchen begging me for ‘one more macaroon’ like little puppies whilst I was trying to transfer them to the jar! Due to the added moisture of the raspberries in the macaroons, they’ll stay chewy for a couple of days. If you store them with the rest of the granola (as I do), then they will firm up and become crunchier after that. Chewy or crunchy, they’re delicious and will last for at least 2 weeks in a sealed container. I LOVE making different granola flavours like this one, or my White Chocolate Coconut Cashew Granola, Chocolate Coconut Granola, Coconut Macaroon Granola or even this Cranberry Nut Sugar Free Granola If you’ve tried my recipe then please rate the recipe and let me know how you got on in the comments below, I love hearing your thoughts and add-ons to my recipes!
