How to make basic & easy Granola





Granola is super easy. All you need to do is find the right mix of sweet and salty in your mix.
I followed this recipe, with a few alterations and it was a real success. I thought I would post immediately to not forget.

INGREDIENTS:

-300 grms of oats.
-100 ml or 1/2 american cup of honey.
-50 ml of sunflower oil 
(or a neutral oil)
-1/2 teaspoon of salt (very important)
-1/2 of nutmeg, cinnamon and mixed spices that are cinnamony.
-100 grms of mixed nuts.
-50 grms of dried fruit.

STEPS

1. Mix the oil, honey, spices and salt in a bowl and whisk together.
2. Add the oats and stir to coat evenly.
3. Try and see if it needs more salt. If you have put too much honey just compensate with salt. It is very important to find the balance of sweet and salty.
4. Now stick in oven to 170 degrees on baking paper both high and top for 10 minutes. 
5. Bring it out of the oven and stir the oats and put it in the oven again for another 5-10 minutes until it is toasted. 
6. Keep an eye on the oven so that it doesn't burn!  and now, it should be done. Add the dried fruit and stir and let it cool off.



Yum! seriously so good. Kenton was so impressed. The key is to find the balance of flavours, also don't put too much cinnamon but use nutmeg to tame that flavour. Wow.
