Home Made Granola

Tested and Enjoyed by : Gilliane Quinn de Schonen

Ingredients

Ingredients are very flexible and forgiving.
I use Flahavans jumbo oats, 40% of total amount and a mix of almonds, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, cashew nuts sliced in half, or what ever is in the cupboard for the remaining 60%.
Butter or coconut oil
Vanilla or lemon

Instructions

Mix the dry ingredients with more nuts and seeds than oats.
Melt butter and add honey and vanilla paste.
I often replace the butter with coconut oil for a lighter and unsweetened version. You can also replace the honey with agave. I love a lemon and cardamom flavour with no sugar.

Mix in the oil or butter with a wooden spoon and pour onto a baking tray. Place in an over at 180 degrees for about 25 minutes or until golden. Don’t let it go too brown. Store in an air tight container. It generally lasts for a few weeks.

Tips

For a healthier breakfast snack on yogurt or with berries. Or goûter time! If you like raisins or dry fruit, add them after the cooking process as they will burn. Ingredients: Store in an air tight container. It generally lasts for a few weeks.
