This crunchy, nutty granola skips the sugar overload in favour of good fats, warm spices, and a satisfying crunch. Slivered almonds and pistachios bring richness and texture, while pumpkin and chia seeds add a boost of fibre and omega-3s. A touch of cinnamon gives it a familiar warmth, and just a hint of natural sweetener keeps it in low-carb territory without compromising on taste.
It’s the kind of pantry staple that works hard – sprinkle it over yogurt, pack it as a snack, or enjoy with nut milk for a fuss-free breakfast. You won’t miss the sugar, and your blood sugar won’t miss the spike.
Best of all, it stays crisp for days and comes together with minimal effort. Bake a batch, jar it up, and your week just got a little easier.

Email Share on FacebookIngredients
- ¼ cup rolled oats
- 2 tbsp pistachios slivered
- 1 tbsp almonds slivered
- 1 tbsp pumpkin seeds
- ¾ tsp chia seeds
- A pinch of fine sea salt
- ¼ tsp cinnamon powder
- ¾ tbsp oil (coconut, olive, or canola)
- A drop or two of liquid stevia or monk fruit sweetener adjust to taste
Instructions
Step 1
- Preheat the oven to 150ºC. Line a small baking tray or oven-safe dish with parchment paper.
Step 2
- In a mixing bowl, combine the oats, pistachios, almonds, pumpkin seeds, chia seeds, salt, and cinnamon.
Step 3

Step 4
- Spread the mixture in a thin, even layer on the prepared tray.
