Paleo Cereal (Vegan)

This paleo cereal is super fast and easy, made in only three minutes, with whatever nuts and dried fruit you have on hand. Great cold or hot, it's super versatile, naturally vegan, and healthy.
Prep: 3 minutes
Total: 3 minutes
Yield:12 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 cups raisins or other dried fruit like dates, cherries, etc.
  • 2 cups mixed nuts like cashews, walnuts, and pecans
  • 1 cup seeds like chia and sunflower
  • 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
  • 1-2 tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 2-3 fruits fresh fruit to serve, optional

Instructions

  • Place the nuts in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until roughly and evenly chopped.
  • Add raisins and/or dried fruit and process briefly until slightly chopped. Do not overprocess, or the raisins will become paste.
  • Add seeds and coconut flakes to food processor. Process until the texture of a cereal like Grape Nuts or as desired. 
  • Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to about 4 weeks. Serve with alt milk, a little maple syrup, and fresh fruit, if desired. Serve hot or cold.

Notes

If using dates, chop manually with a knife to prevent stickiness and clumping.
To temper an egg, crack an egg into a small bowl and whisk. Warm up the almond (or other) milk you'll serve with your cereal until pretty hot, but not boiling. While whisking the egg, very slowly drizzle about 1/4 cup of the hot almond milk into the egg. Once you've poured in about 1/4 cup of hot liquid, you can add the egg into your cereal bowl without worrying about it curdling.
