  • I’ve been making some granola every week for a couple of months now. I love eating it with my daily apple. Here is a link to the recipes:
    Cinnamon Raisin: mealprepmanual...
    Double Dark Chocolate: mealprepmanual...
    Peanut Butter Protein Cluster: mealprepmanual...
    Here is a link to the ZWILLING Fresh & Save Starter Set. Use the code "MEALPREP" at checkout for an extra 10 bags for free when purchasing a starter set: www.kqzyfj.com...

    This video was sponsored by ZWILLING and their Fresh & Save Vacuum Food Storage System. They recently released the CUBE dry storage collection which is what I used to store the granola from this video. I have been using ZWILLING knives for years and their Fresh & Save Vacuum bags for Snack City for about 2 years now so when they reached out and asked if I wanted to collaborate, it was an easy yes.

    Josh, can you make a grocery video of what you stock up on that can be used for the majority of your recipes?

    To fix the vanilla problem, I just poke a small hole in the paper seal on the top of the bottle, then it drips out instead if dumps.

    I just made the peanut butter protein one, and oh my god, that granola is so good. gonna do the chocolate one with the protein powder, see how good that one turns out. you knocked it out of the park with this recipe.

      You could easily add protein to that one, the oil will make it even more seamless to add

    Love what you've been doing man! been going with my massive prep days for about a year now and it's been life changing!
    My turn to give back now haha, as a heads up for the vanilla, you can take a thumb tack and pop a little hole in the seal instead of ripping it off, allows you to control it much more easily =D

    Could not agree more on the almond milk take. I prefer lactose free dairy milk, tastes great and it doesn’t expire for like 2 months even though I usually finish it in a week

    • @SEPPanda
      @SEPPanda ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Some almond milk isn't bad, but it's usually one with sugar and vanilla flavouring.

  • @sunnyblossom_711

    I gave up dairy milk except for cooking/baking about 15 years ago and these are my go-tos for alternatives. Ripple unsweetened split pea milk is my favorite, it has 8g of protein and 70 calories per 8 fl oz serving. second favorite is high protein flax milk (5g protein, 45 cal per 8 fl oz), third favorite is oat milk (5g protein, 110 cal per 8 fl oz). depending on your macros, calories etc. they all give you good options and the taste and texture are 1000x better than almond milk. hope this helps anyone looking for good dairy milk alternatives!

    This might be the video that will finally convince me to make my own granola after years of knowing how to. Your comment about the almond milk cracked me up...not sure how long you're doing your plant milk experiment, but I'd highly recommend getting almond butter and blending it with water, salt, vanilla, honey or another sweetner and you won't be torturing yourself at least 😂

    Try Cashew milk or Macadamia nut milk! I like almond milk but its the most boring out of al the nut milks and since they're all unsweetened I just add a packet of Truvia or aspartame into my milk serving

  • @marcusbordeaux7548

  • @pubcollize
    @pubcollize ปีที่แล้ว

    Josh I'm not 100% sure but by eye I suspect the oats you're using are not whole oats despite what it says on the bag. I recently found out I can get properly-whole rolled oats locally (they look much browner, like the difference between whole and white rice), they taste much better, they roast much better, they have a far better bite to them.
    Whenever the store is out of those and I can only get the regular bleached ones they're so inferior to the whole oats it feels as if they're off even though they're fresh.

    • @pubcollize
      @pubcollize ปีที่แล้ว

      @@jaminwaite3867 Groats look completely different. I'm talking about rolled oats, with the same shape and pattern as any other thick rolled oats but if you put them side by side you'd say the common one was bleached before pressing.

    • @pubcollize
      @pubcollize ปีที่แล้ว

      No idea what's the exact difference in processing, but visually it's the same difference of whole vs white rice, whole vs white wheat, etc.
      Ever wondered why rolled oats look so pale? If they truly were whole cereal which was pressed, then the cracked skin would be significantly more visible than it is in "whole oats".
      Well, I have a jar of "whole oats" and a jar of properly-whole oats side by side and I can tell you one of them looks exactly like what Josh is using and was labelled as "whole", and the other one also labelled as "whole" looks significantly whole-ier.
