Homemade Granola

It has taken me a while to get round to writing this but I’m finally here. My homemade granola last summer had so much success that I promised I’d post the recipe on our blog so you can made this delicious treat at home. It has taken me a while to get the ingredients right and now I am happy with the result and would love to share it with you. The thing I love about this is that it is packed with goodness and it is truly delicious whether eaten as a snack on it’s own, for breakfast served with fresh fruit and yogurt or added to your favorite morning cereal or porridge.

Ingredients:

• Large rolled oats 300 gr
• Raw honey 4 large tablespoons
• Coconut oil 1 large tablespoon
• Nuts (I use almond, hazelnut, walnuts but you can use whichever you like) 2 handful
• Pumpkin seeds 1 tablespoon
• Linseed powder 1 tablespoon
• Sunflower seeds 1 tablespoon
• Raisins 1 table spoon
• Dried cranberries 1 tablespoon
• Coconut flakes 1 tablespoon

Method

Lay your large oats in a baking tray and add half the honey and all coconut oil and mix well. Place in the oven on a low heat (80 degrees) for about 15 minutes (mixing every now and then to make sure it doesn’t burn). It should be a light golden colour. Remove from the oven and add the nuts and seeds and dried fruits and if necessary add the rest of the honey and mix again then add to the oven for another 15 minutes mixing every now and then. It is ready when it turns golden and the nuts are crunchy. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do!
