Super Seed Home-Made Granola

home-made granola | nathalie.ie

Make your own granola, and there’s no going back.

My version is a re-jigged take on this awesome recipe from Minimalist Baker, which features dark chocolate. However, for a week-day kick start, I forgo the chocolate and add in a whole load of seeds.

A batch usually lasts us around two to three weeks in an air-tight container or jar. I serve it up with plain yoghurt and sometimes a bit of chopped fruit. I’ve also been known to grab a cheeky handful as a snack too.

Recipe below. Next week, I’ll share a very quick and easy spiced raspberry compote that goes great with this!

    Ingredients
    1. 2 cups porridge oats
    2. 1 cup of coconut flakes
    3. 1 cup raw almonds
    4. 3 tbsp. sugar (I'm currently liking coconut sugar)
    5. ¼ tsp of salt
    6. 1/4 cup coconut oil
    7. 1/4 cup almond/peanut butter
    8. 1/3 cup maple syrup/agave/honey
    9. 1/4 cup of sunflower seeds
    10. 1/4 cup of flaxseed
    11. 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds
    12. 1/4 cup of whatever else you like – I'm into walnuts
    Instructions
    1. Pre-heat the oven to 150°.
    2. Mix the dry ingredients in a large bowl.
    3. Over a medium heat, warm and melt the coconut oil, nut butter and syrup/honey.
    4. Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients, and mix well so that everything is well coated.
    5. Spread the mixture evenly onto one or two baking sheets (I do mine in batches).
    6. This needs about 20-minutes in the oven, but watch it carefully as it can burn quickly. I rotate mine around 10-minutes in to get it all evenly browned.
