Matcha Coconut Granola
Sundays are for relaxing and chilling with family. They’re also for baking/food prepping for the week ahead. If you’re trying to eat healthier, organisation and food preparation is key! There is nothing worse than feeling hungry and realising there is nothing ready waiting for you in the fridge or cupboard and you now have to think of something to prepare or resort to buying something unhealthy.
Breakfast seems to be the meal that people struggle with the most. If you’re short on time in the morning, baking a big batch of granola is a great way to ensure you always have something healthy to grab when you’re in a hurry. Get a bowl, add some granola, pour some milk and you’re basically good to go!
Granola is also a great snack to take with you on the go. Put a couple of handfuls in a sealable bag or a small container, pop it in your bag and you have a healthy on-the-go snack whenever you’re feeling peckish.
I love using matcha powder in breakfast recipes. It’s always a good idea to get as many antioxidants into your body as early on as possible! It’s also a good source of caffeine if you’re someone who needs an energy boost in the morning.

It’s so green! I love it!! This is such a fun way to start the day!
Happy Sunday love! I cannot wait to dig into some amaaaaaazing personal indulgences such as lying down in bed, taking luxurious showers and moist heat facials for me! 🙂 That’s what my Sundays look for me at least! Anyways, this granola looks phenomenal! I love how green and gorgeous it looks!
I love granola yet I have never made it at home. Your recipe has given me the inspiration to try as it not only looks. Goid but is healthier than shop bought.
This is such a great way to use matcha. I think I’m going to have to five this a try as my homemade granola stash is low.
Oh this is such a fun spin on Granola – love it!
