Ingredients

  • 80g butter or coconut oil if vegan
  • 30g pecan nuts
  • 30g desiccated coconut
  • 20g pumpkin seeds
  • 20g sunflower seeds
  • 70g ground almond
  • 40ml water
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to gas mark 2/300oF/150oC and line a baking tray with baking or parchment paper.
  • Melt the butter or coconut oil in the microwave using a microwaveable bowl (Approximately 45 seconds for butter and 15 seconds for coconut oil if it is solid). You can also do this on a saucepan but ensure you do this on a gentle heat so the butter doesn’t go brown. Set aside.
  • Chop the pecan nuts into small pieces and add them to a bowl. To the same bowl add the desiccated coconut, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds and ground almond.
  • Pour the melted butter and water into the bowl then stir all the ingredients together with a spoon. Add the vanilla extract, ground cinnamon and stir again until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
  • Pour the mixture onto the baking tray as pictured. Bake for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, stir and spread out the mixture then bake again for another 20 minutes until the granola is dry and crunchy. Remove from the oven and allow to cook for 10 minutes then enjoy.
