Homemade Nutty Granola
- Prep Time: 5 minutes
- Cook Time: 15 minutes
- Total Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients
Scale
- 500 gm oats (preheat the oven to 140c)
- 100 gm mixed nuts
- 100 gm mixed seeds
- 50 gm sultanas
- 50 gm goji berries
- 1 tsp cinnamon (or to taste)
- 3 tbsp rice syrup
Instructions
- Pour the oats onto a large baking tray, try to get as evenly distributed as possible
- Sprinkle with the seeds, the crushed nuts (retain the remaining nuts) & cinnamon
- Drizzle from a height (to distribute more evenly) with the rice syrup
- Bake the oats for 15 minutes in the oven, turning the mixture over after 10 minutes
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle over the remaining nuts, sultanas & goji berries
- Pour the mixture into a big bowl and stir to combine
- Leave to cook and then transfer to an airtight glass jar
Notes
- Use any nuts, almonds, cashews & walnuts are my favourite but you can use one or even macadamia, pecan, hazelnut, brazil or omit nuts if you have an allergy
- Use any seeds, linseeds, chia & sunflower seeds are my favourite but you can use one or even pumpkin seeds. Instead of sultanas & goji berries use raisins, mixed dried fruit and/or goji berries
- Add cacoa nibs for the chocolate touch or coconut flakes for the tropical flavour
- Blend until chunky or crush with a pestle & mortar half of the nuts I often use 2 baking trays of oats and put side by side in the oven to spread the oats more evenly on the tray
- I love to top with fresh fruit when serving, especially blueberries or strawberries in season (preferably organic as berries are high in pesticides!)
