Homemade granola

Nutty, fruity wholesome goodness is what homemade granola is all about. Please feel free to ad lib here, with substitutions such as honey for maple syrup, raisins, apricots or dried apples for the dried cranberries and cashews for the whole almonds.

Ingredients

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 170C/325F/Gas 3. Line two large roasting trays with parchment paper and set aside.

  2. Put the maple syrup, sugar, oil and vanilla extract into a large bowl and mix well. Then toss in the oats, mixed seeds, pecans (or walnuts), whole almonds, flaked almonds, coconut and salt and cinnamon (if using). Give it a good stir and then get your hands in, picking it up and letting it fall down to coat and moisten everything really well.

  3. Pour the mixture onto the roasting trays and spread it out evenly. Bake in the oven for about 15 minutes, giving it a good stir and swapping them about on their shelves half way through.

  4. The granola should be golden-brown when cooked. Remove and leave to cool completely before stirring the cranberries through. Store in an airtight container for up to a month.

Recipe Tips

You can make this granola in the air-fryer, though we recommend you start with a half batch. Mix as above. Line a basket air-fryer with foil, or use a baking tray - depending on what style air-fryer you own. bake at 170C for 15 minutes, stirring the granola every 5 minutes.
