Equipment

  • One large mixing bowl
  • A rimmed baking tray lined with baking parchment
  • A spatula or large spoon
  • A jar or airtight container for storing the granola

Ingredients

  • 300 g rolled oats
  • 100 g mixed nuts roughly chopped
  • 50 g desiccated coconut
  • 3 tablespoons coconut oil melted
  • 80 ml pure maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of flaky sea salt
  • 50 g dried fruit (added after baking)

Per Bowl:

  • 150 g full-fat Greek yoghurt
  • Generous handful of fresh fruit
  • 1 tablespoon runny honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon nut butter optional
  • Scattering of seeds optional

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 160°C (140°C fan / 325°F). Line a large rimmed baking tray with parchment.
  • Combine oats, nuts, coconut, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl.
  • Mix melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla. Pour over the dry ingredients and stir until evenly coated.
  • Spread onto the prepared tray and press down firmly with a spatula.
  • Bake for 35–40 minutes, rotating the tray halfway through. Do not stir.
  • Cool completely on the tray, then break into chunks and fold in dried fruit.
  • To assemble: spoon yoghurt into a bowl, top with granola, fresh fruit, a drizzle of honey, and any extras you like.

Notes

Store granola in a sealed jar for up to two weeks. Freezes well for up to three months. Do not add the dried fruit before baking as it will burn. Full-fat yoghurt gives the best results.
