Crunchy nut granola
Is there a better way to wake up than to a breakfast bowl of nutty granola, topped with lashings of yogurt, berries and honey?
Adapted from a Deliciously Ella recipe, this granola is crunchy, nutty and incredibly moorish.
Ingredients (serves 4-6):
1.5 heaped cups of jumbo oats/ approx. 220g
60-80ml maple syrup
3 tbsp coconut oil
Zest of 1 orange + juice of half
100g mixed chopped nuts
1/4 a cup/ 30g of pumpkin seeds
1/4 a cup/ 30g of sunflower & chia seeds
Handful of raisins⠀
Directions:
Heat the maple syrup and coconut oil over a low heat until combined. Remove from heat, add orange zest and juice.
In a separate mixing bowl, add all remaining dry ingredients, apart from the raisins.
Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until evenly coated.
Spread evenly on a large baking tray and cook for approx 35 minutes at 140 turning every 5 minutes until golden brown.
Stir in the raisins when cool.
Serve with greek yogurt, blueberries and crunchy peanut putter!
Variations:
This recipe is flexible. You can substitute nuts/ seeds/ agave or maple for whatever you have available. Why not try adding cinnamon & nutmeg for a little winter spice!
