Our Granola Recipe
When our new head chef started earlier this year, he mentioned more than a few exciting recipes, including his nutty homemade granola. You might have seen it on the menu, served with Greek yoghurt, fresh berries and a berry coulis. It's so good that we want to share it with you.
Enjoy!
Our granola recipe
Ingredients
- 250g porridge oats
- 250g honey (use maple syrup to make it vegan)
- 50g chopped nuts (choose your favourites or go for walnuts and pecans)
- 50g mixed seeds (we like sunflower and pumpkin)
- 50g dried apricots
- 50g sultanas
- Coconut flakes to taste
Method
- Pre-heat oven to 160C fan. Line a baking tray with baking parchment
- Pour all the ingredients into a mixing bowl. Using hands or a wooden spoon combine ingredients together until sticky and well coated
- Tip the mixture into your lined baking tray and press down into an even layer
- Cook in oven for 30 minutes or until golden. Turn the mix every 10 minutes to ensure it bakes evenly. Keep a close eye as nuts can burn easily
- Once out of the oven, turn again to ensure you break up any large clumps. Leave to cool completely.
- Serve with yoghurt & fresh berries
- Will keep in an air tight container for one month. You can ‘refresh’ it by putting it all in the oven again (at 160C fan) for 10 mins
Alternatively: don’t break up the mix, cut into rectangles, and store in the fridge for granola bars!
