Oliver’s Chia Seed Granola

Ingredients

  • 80ml maple syrup
  • 2 tbsps True Natural Goodness organic virgin coconut oil
  • 1½ tbsps True Natural Goodness organic ground ceylon cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp Himalayan fine rock salt
  • 500g True Natural Goodness gluten free organic oat flakes (or buckwheat, quinoa, millet, brown rice flakes)
  • 65g pumpkin seeds

  • 60g dried cranberries
  • 50g sunflower seeds
  • 30g True Natural Goodness goji berries
  • 4 dried figs, chopped

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 160°C/gas mark 3.

2. Combine the maple syrup, coconut oil, cinnamon and salt in a small bowl.

3. Mix the oat flakes and all the seeds in a large bowl.

4. Pour the oil mixture into the bowl and mix until uniform (you can use clean hands).
