    Everyone who tries our granola loves it – in fact, most of them say it’s the best granola they’ve ever had! Many people enjoy eating it sprinkled on their homemade yogurt and others love to eat it by the handful, but our favourite way is to eat it as a cereal with homemade almond or coconut milk. Below find these two non-dairy milk recipes so you too can indulge in this hearty, healthy treat.

    Almond Milk
    Makes 2 cups (500 mL)

    1 cup (250 mL) almond flour
    2 cups (500 mL) water
    2 tsp (10 mL) honey

    • Put the ingredients in a blender and blend for 2 minutes.
    • Pour the mixture through a fine sieve or strain through a dish towel.
    • Store your milk in the refrigerator.

     

    Coconut Milk
    Makes 1¼ cups (300 mL)

    1 cup (250 mL) unsweetened coconut
    2 cups (500 mL) boiling water
    2 tsp (10 mL) honey

    • Store your milk in the refrigerator.



    Baked Brie with Oven Roasted Garlic
    This is a wonderful dish served with our delicious Dried Peach & Pistachio Biscotti. The garlic, when roasted, mellows in taste and has a mild sweetness, making it the perfect topping for your biscotti and oven-softened brie. Drizzle a bit of honey over the biscotti, cheese and garlic and you have a decadent appetizer for company or snack to indulge in by yourself.

    1 whole head of garlic
    1 tsp olive oil
    One 16-oz-round brie cheese
    Honey, warmed for drizzling

    • Preheat the oven to 350ºF.
    • Cut the pointed top off the head of garlic just to flatten it off and expose the tips of the cloves.
    • Drizzle olive oil over the garlic.
    • Wrap the garlic in tin foil and place it in the oven.
    • Wrap the entire round of brie in parchment paper and then wrap it in tin foil. Place the wrapped brie in a baking dish.
    • After the garlic has baked for 20 minutes, add the brie to the oven.
    • Bake them both for 20 minutes and then remove them from the oven.
    • Allow the garlic to cool a few moments before you remove the cloves; once a bit cooled, the cloves will be soft like a paste and easier to squeeze out and spread.
    • Spread the brie and garlic on the biscotti and drizzle with warm honey.
