My Homemade Granola Recipe
Low sugar granola using coconut oil, apple juice + maple syrup to sweeten
This low sugar granola recipe goes perfectly with a dollop of Greek yogurt + fresh fruit for a healthy start to the day or as a mid afternoon snack! These are the quantities but to be honest, I tend to make it up + add in whatever nuts or seeds I have in the house!
Ingredients
- 9 cups old-fashioned rolled oats1 cup walnuts , chopped
- 1 cup chopped walnuts
- 1 cup chopped almonds
- 1 cup chopped hazelnuts
- 1 cup pumpkin seeds
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes (optional)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 1/2 cups apple juice
- 1/2 cup melted coconut oil
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cups raisins/cranberries
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 170C. Melt the apple juice, coconut oil, maple syrup together. Toss the rolled oats, nuts, coconut and cinnamon in a large bowl. Mix everything together.
- Place on a baking tray + bake in the oven for approx 25 mins until golden brown. Do not over cook! It will cook a little more when you bring it out. Cool + then transfer to a jar. Voila!
