Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoon runny honey
  • 4 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 180 g rolled oats
  • 100 g dried cranberries
  • 100 g almonds
  • 100 g chocolate 80% dark; roughly chopped

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C(fan)/400°F/Gas 6 and line a large baking sheet with grease proof paper.
  2. Place 4 tablespoon Runny honey and 4 tablespoon Coconut oil in a pan and melt over a low heat. Add 180 g Rolled oats and 100 g Almonds.
  3. Pour the granola onto the baking sheet and spread it out evenly. Transfer to the oven and bake for 20 minutes, stirring halfway.
  4. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature and then add 100 g Chocolate (chopped) and 100 g Dried cranberries and mix. Transfer to an airtight container and use within 2 weeks.

Notes

  • Make sure you leave the granola to cool on the baking tray before you eat it or put it in a jar. I know, it is hard not to eat it straight from the tray.
  • Feel free to use a mixture of nuts and dried fruit.
  • You can freeze granola, but make sure that it isn't frozen for longer than 3 months.
  • To ensure this recipe is definitely gluten free, use oats that are certified gluten free.
