  4. Spread the granola evenly on a baking sheet and bake for about 20 minutes, or until deep golden brown and crispy. Flip the mixture once halfway through.

This aromatic cacao amaranth granola tickles one's taste buds from the moment it hits the oven. Flaked amaranth, a South American, protein-rich grain, are the base of this granola recipe. Naturally small and tender, they crisp up while baked and go really well with cacao, which readily shares its mood-boosting compounds. Goji berries, on the other hand, bring a richness of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants to the table. Enhanced with pecans and chia seeds, this cacao amaranth granola is a truly delicious and fiber-rich recipe.

Store your cacao amaranth granola with goji berries in an airtight container. It will stay fresh for a few weeks. Enjoy it with milk, yogurt, fruit salads, and more!
