A big hit with children (both preparation and consumption), this crunchy granola uses only fruit or maple syrup for sweetness.
Ingredients
- 200 g porridge oats
- 150 g nuts (brazil nuts, hazelnuts, flaked almonds)
- 100 g raisins/dried fruit
- 100 g seeds (pumpkin, sunflower, sesame)
- 50 g dried coconut
- 3 tablespoons coconut oil
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup/fruit syrup
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Method
Heat the coconut oil until melted.
Add the porridge oats and cinnamon and stir for ten minutes.
Transfer the oats to a bowl.
Crush the nuts in a mortar and pestle.
Heat the nuts in the pan until brown and put them in the bowl with the oats.
Add the fruit syrup to the pan and stir on a low heat until runny.
Add all of the ingredients including the oats and nuts to the pan and stir on a low heat until they are mixed and starting to brown.
Transfer to a baking sheet and leave to cool.
Store in an airtight container.
