(Reserve soaking water for other recipes)

Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl, stirring well with a large spoon.

Place a thick layer of about 1/2" on mesh dehydrator sheet.

Dehydrate until crunchy - about 12-14 hours.

Serve with fresh nut milk or soymilk.

Hmm Hmm Good!!

The bulk of the granola is the sprouted buckwheat.

The other quantities and ingredients are up to you based on your discretion and personal taste.

This is a nutrient dense granola, very crunchy, and remains so even in milk.

* Comments: Michelle says maple syrup is not raw, and sucanat, which stands for Sugar Cane Natural, is made by crushing sugar cane, extracting the juice and rapidly evaporating the rich syrup to create a porous granule --- if I were making this recipe, I'd use agave nectar as the sweetener.
