CRUNCHY GRANOLA



I recently started to make my own granola. I think it is really easy to make and the best part is that you know what ingredients you put in, no sugar or preservatives used. We love it with some fruit and yoghurt for breakfast. 

Ingredients

400g porridge oats
100g pecans or walnuts (roughly chopped)
80g pepitas (pumpkin seeds)
80g sunflower seeds
50g hemp seeds (optional)
80ml maple syrup
60ml coconut oil
150ml rice milk
1 tsp ground cinnamon
40g flaked coconut
40g craisins (optional)
40g goji berries (optional)

Method

Preheat oven to 180C fan forced.
Place oats and seeds in a big bowl and mix to combine. Add maple syrup, oil and milk and mix gently to coat.
Divide the mixture between two baking trays and spread evenly.


Bake for about 15 minutes.
Stir the mixture and spread the pecans on top. Bake for a further 10 - 15 minutes or until the granola is golden and crunchy.


Allow to cool on the trays. 
Once cold, mix them together with the cinnamon, flaked coconut and the craisins and berries if using.


The granola will keep for 2 weeks stored in an airtight jar.
