Easy Toasted Homemade Granola is so simple to make that you’ll never go back to store-bought. Pack it with your perfect mix of nuts, seeds and fruit – it’s infinitely customisable.
Ingredients
- 400 g rolled (porridge) oats
- 125 ml coconut oil (melted) or olive oil
- 125 ml maple syrup
- 1 tsp natural vanilla extract
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- ½ tsp sea salt flakes
- 1½ cups nuts/seeds of choice (I used a combination of pecans, sunflower seeds and pepitas/pumpkin seeds)
- 30 g shaved coconut flakes
- 75 g dried fruit (I used dried cranberries/”craisins”)
- Plain yoghurt, to serve (optional)
- Strawberries and blueberries, to serve (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat – Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) (180°C/350°F fan-forced).
- Combine the ingredients – In a large bowl, combine the oats, coconut oil (or olive oil), maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon and salt.
- Bake – Spread out evenly on a baking tray lined with baking (parchment) paper and bake for 10 minutes.
- Add the nuts/seeds and coconut to the ingredients on the tray. Stir well to combine. Bake for a further 10 minutes.
- Add the dried fruit – Stir the dried fruit through. Allow the granola to cool completely (it will deepen in colour as it cools).
- Serve – Serve with yoghurt and fresh fruit, if desired. Store in an airtight container for up to 4 weeks.
