Ingredients
- 40 ml olive oil
- 120 ml maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 200 g rolled oats
- 75 g quinoa flakes
- 200 g mixed nuts (I used peanuts and whole skin-on almonds, as they are relatively cheap!)
- 30 g pumpkin seeds
- 30 g sunflower seeds
- 50 g rice krispies (puffed rice)
- 75 g dark chocolate, (grated or shaved into flakes - check it is vegan)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 150ºC / 300ºF / Gas Mark 2.
- In a small saucepan, gently heat the olive oil, maple syrup, vanilla extract and salt for 2-3 minutes until fully dissolved and combined. Leave aside to cool slightly.
- In a large bowl combine the oats, quinoa flakes, nuts, seeds and rice krispies. Pour over the maple syrup and oil and mix thoroughly to combine.
- Cover a large baking tray with greaseproof paper, and spread out the granola mix. Bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes, stirring occasionally and making sure it is golden rather than burnt!
- Leave the granola to cool, then grate or shave the chocolate over the top. Store in an airtight container.
