🥥✨ H&F Glow Clusters: Bucks ’n Honey Edition with Sprouted Buckwheat, Coconut, Vanilla, and Vitamin D₃

A crunchy, glow-boosting pantry gem — crafted for skin, soul, and snack time.

Plant-based. Gluten-free. Refined-sugar free. Made to glow.

🛒 Ingredients (makes ~4 cups | ~12–14 servings):

• 2 cups sprouted buckwheat groats (lightly toasted or dehydrated)
• 1 cup raw pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
• 1 cup unsweetened coconut shreds
• 3 tbsp raw organic honey (local if possible — for that floral nuance)
• 1 tbsp pure maple syrup (optional, softens the honey’s edge)
• 1 tsp pure vanilla extract (or scraped vanilla bean for an elevated twist)
• 1 tbsp plant-based liquid vitamin D₃ (from lichen or algae)
• ⅛ tsp sea salt (we recommend fleur de sel or pink salt)
• Optional: ½ tsp cinnamon, turmeric, or ginger (warm & immune-lifting)

🥄 Instructions:

1. Activate or Toast Buckwheat (Optional)

If using raw groats: soak in water for 8 hours, rinse well, then dehydrate or oven-dry at 170°F for 2–3 hours until crisp.

Or use pre-sprouted buckwheat from health food stores.

2. Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large ceramic or glass bowl, stir together:

• buckwheat
• pumpkin seeds
• coconut shreds
• salt and spices

3. Warm the Honey Binder

In a small saucepan on low heat, gently warm:

• honey
• maple syrup (if using)
• vanilla extract
• liquid D₃

⚠️ Do not boil. Warm just enough to pour smoothly while preserving nutrients.

4. Coat the Clusters

Pour the warm binder over the dry mix. Stir slowly with a wooden spoon or silicone spatula until evenly coated and slightly glossy.

5. Scoop & Shape

Use a tablespoon to scoop portions onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Press gently to form chunky clusters.

Want bark-style? Press into one single sheet and break apart later.

6. Bake to Golden Crunch

Bake at 300°F (150°C) for 12–15 minutes, turning the tray halfway through. Let cool fully before transferring to jars—it will crisp as it cools.

🧊 Storage & Glow Rituals:

• Store in a sealed glass jar at room temp for 10–14 days
• Sprinkle over: yogurt, smoothie bowls, almond milk, or golden oats
• Or: straight from the jar with gratitude and glowing intentions ✨
