Granola

Deliciously crunchy and healthy granola.

This is the basic recipe, and you can add to it according to your own taste.

Requirements:

Base:

• 200 g oat flakes (whole grain)
• 2 tbsp coconut oil
• pinch of salt
• 3 tbsp seeds (flaxseed, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, ... )
• 2 tbsp honey

Additions; optional:

• 100 g dried fruit (figs, dates, goji berries, raisins, ...)
• 2 tbsp nuts (hazelnuts, pecans, almonds, ...)
• 1 pinch of vanilla powder
• Orange zest of 1 orange
• 50 g chocolate

Preparation:

Preheat the oven to 180°C.

In a baking tin or on a baking tray, mix the oat flakes with the coconut oil. Add the seeds and the pinch of salt and mix through.

Place it in the oven for approximately 15 minutes. Stir the granola every 5 minutes to ensure even heat distribution.

Meanwhile, finely chop the nuts, the chocolate, or the dried fruit.

Add these along with the honey to the granola. Mix everything well and place in the oven for another 5 minutes.

We do this so that the nuts, honey, and fruit do not get baked too hard.

It is best to add the vanilla powder and orange zest only after the granola has finished baking. This prevents any flavor from being lost.

Let the granola cool and serve with yogurt or coconut milk and fruit.

Enjoy!
