Instructions

    1.
    Preheat an oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit (163 degrees Celsius). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Ensure all ingredients are ready before starting. If substituting nuts or seeds, refer to the recipe introduction for suggestions. A liquid sweetener is recommended to avoid aftertaste and burning.
    2.
    In a small pan over low heat, lightly toast the chopped pecans and walnuts for about 30 seconds until fragrant. In a large mixing bowl, combine the toasted nuts, seeds, coconut flakes, cinnamon, and dried blueberries. Melt the coconut oil in the microwave. Stir the vanilla extract and liquid stevia into the melted coconut oil. Pour the flavored coconut oil over the dry ingredients and fold gently with a spatula until evenly coated. Spread the mixture in a thin layer on the prepared baking sheet.
    3.
    Bake the cereal for 30 minutes. Allow the cereal to cool completely on the baking sheet before breaking it into bite-sized pieces. Serve ½ cup of the blueberry cereal in a bowl with your favorite non-dairy milk, such as coconut milk, almond milk, or oat milk. Garnish with extra dried blueberries, fresh blueberries, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or flaked coconut, as desired.
