Apple & Cinnamon Granola

Granola. A breakfast favourite, but unfortunately laden with sugars and flavours that aren't any good for us. This homemade take on a well-loved muesli alternative is sweetened with honey and apples, and loaded with protein, good fats, and a delicious taste.

Ingredients

• One large apple
• One cup of wholegrain oats
• 1 tablespoon raw organic honey
• 1 tablespoon unhulled organic tahini
• 2 tablespoons water
• Dried cranberries
• Slivered almonds
• Shredded coconut
• Chia seeds
• Sunflower seeds
• Pumpkin seeds
• Cinnamon
• Nutmeg

Method

Preheat oven to 180c

Chop the apple and put into a saucepan with a thin layer of water. Cover and cook until the apple is soft. Mash and add into a large mixing bowl.

Melt the honey, mix into the apple mixture with water and tahini.

Add all the dry ingredients and the spices. Mix well.

The mixture should be sticky - at this point, give it a taste. Add whatever you feel necessary. Spread onto a 

baking tray lined with parchment paper.

Bake at 180c for about 30 minutes, turning the mixture thoroughly at least four times.

Leave to fully cool (it'll harden and go crispy and delicious), put into a sealable jar, and enjoy with yogurt, milk, or as a snack!
