If you haven't tried making your own granola at home, you need to ASAP!

Homemade granola hits different! I don’t know why it's so addictive but it just is. We eat it for breakfast, we’ll snack on it throughout the day and have a little bit more for dessert after dinner. Before we know it, the big batch that we made over the weekend that was supposed to last us for a couple of weeks is gone in a couple of days. Do we have a serious problem?

Serves: 20

Prep time: 5 minutes

Cooking time: 20 minutes

Cooling time: > 1 hour

Ingredients

  • 4 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup cashew nuts
  • 1/4 cup sunflower seeds
  • 3/4 cup peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • Cinnamon powder
  • Salt (optional but highly recommended)

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 170 degrees celsius
  2. Put the peanut butter in a glass bowl and microwave for around 30 seconds on a medium heat, or until it has softened
  3. Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl and mix well
  4. Lay the mixture flat on a sheet pan. Make sure that it overlaps so that it can form clumps
  5. Put the tray into the oven for 20 minutes. Halfway through, you will need to take it out of the oven to toss so that it doesn’t burn
  6. Once it is nice and toasty, take it out and let it cool in the tray
  7. After it has cooled for at least 1hr, you can transfer to an airtight container to store
