Ingredients:

40 grams (1/3 cup) cacao nibs (optional)

50 grams (1 cup) unsweetened coconut chips

60 grams (1/3 cup) extra virgin coconut oil

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

100 grams (1/3 cup) honey

1 teaspoon ground cake spices (I use the French quatre-épices mix that includes cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and black pepper)

500 grams (1 pound 2 ounces) mixed nuts and seeds (here I used skin-on almonds and cashews; you can also use hazelnuts, walnuts, pecans, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds...)

1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt

50 grams (1/2 cup) unsweetened grated coconut

Equipment:

baking paper

baking sheet

oven

food processor

blender

bowl

mixing bowl

Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat the oven to 160°C (320°F) and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.Put the nuts in the bowl of a food processor or blender, and process in short pulses until roughly chopped, stirring every few pulses for even chopping. The goal is to have a mix of bigger bits and smaller bits.Pour into a large mixing bowl, add the rest of the ingredients, and stir vigorously until well combined. Pay particular attention to the honey and coconut oil: they will tend to remain as individual wads, and you'll need to coax them into mingling with the other ingredients.Pour out onto the prepared baking sheet and spread out evenly.Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring thoroughly every 10 minutes, until golden brown.Let the granola cool completely on the sheet -- it will crisp up as it cools -- then transfer to an airtight container. It will keep for 3 weeks at cool room temperature, or a couple of months in the refrigerator.

Food Joke

Little Tommy was doing very badly in math. His parents had tried everything; tutors, flash cards, special learning centers, in short, everything they could think of. Finally in a last ditch effort, they took Tommy down and enrolled him in the local Catholic School. After the first day, little Tommy comes home with a very serious look on his face. He doesn't kiss his mother hello. Instead, he goes straight to his room & starts studying. Books & papers are spread out all over the room and little Tommy is hard at work. His mother is amazed. She calls him down to dinner and to her shock, the minute he is done he marches back to his room without a word and in no time he is back hitting the books as hard as before. This goes on for sometime, day after day while the mother tries to understand what made all the difference. Finally, little Tommy brings home his report card. He quietly lays it on the table and goes up to his room and hits the books. With great trepidation, his mom looks at it and to her surprise, little Tommy got an A in math. She can no longer hold her curiosity. She goes to his room and says: "Son, what was it? Was it the nuns?" Little Tommy looks at her and shakes his head "No". "Well then", she replies, "was it the books, the discipline, the structure, the uniforms, WHAT was it?". Little Tommy looks at her and says, "Well, on the first day of school, when I saw that guy nailed to the plus sign, I knew they weren't fooling around.
