Granola

Ingredients

  • 2 coconuts, fresh, grated
  • ¼ cup dates, finely chopped
  • 2 cups oats
  • 1 cup nuts (cashews, walnuts or almonds)
  • 1 tsp cinnamon powder
  • ½ cup sunflower oil
  • 2 tbsp honey

Method

  1. Put the coconut and dates in a large, deep bowl with the oats and nuts.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix the cinnamon powder, oil, and honey well together.
  3. Pour this over the oats mixture and stir well until the oats are evenly coated.
  4. Preheat oven to 100°C / 212°F. Grease 2 rectangular baking trays with a little oil.
  5. Pour the oat mixture onto the baking trays.
  6. Bake for about 1½ hours, or until toasted, stirring gently every 15-20 minutes to prevent sticking.
  7. Remove, cool, and store in an airtight container.
