Homemade Ginger and Orange Granola

Want to be healthy but have a sweet tooth then try out this for breakie with some fresh berries and yoghurt...! Make a batch and it will last you for weeks! I use half a cup as a portion size when having it.



Ingredients:

250g organic jumbo rolled oats
50g nibbed or flaked almonds
50g pumpkin seeds
50g sunflower seeds
1tbsp ground ginger
Pinch of salt
3 tbsp coconut oil (you can use melted butter)
5-6 tbsp honey 
1 large orange

Method:

1. Pre heat the oven to 170oC.

2. Mix the oats, almonds, pumkin seeds, sunflower seed, ginger and salt in a large bowl.

3. Mix coconut oil and 5-6 tbsp honey, and then add the grated zest of 1 large orange.

4. Pour over the oat mixture and stir well.

5. Spread the mixture on wide baking tray and bake for 20-30 minutes until golden brown, giving it a stir every 5 minutes to ensure it colours evenly.


Tip: Dont put the oven too high and take time to stir often and just be patient, its worth the wait if you let it just cook slowly and get nice and brown!
