Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit (160 degrees Celsius). To prevent food from sticking to a large baking sheet, either line it with parchment paper or lightly grease it (optional).
- Rolling oats, chopped nuts, shredded coconut (if using), raisins, ground cinnamon, and salt should all be mixed together in a large mixing bowl containing all of the ingredients.
Ā
- Everything should be thoroughly mixed together by stirring it. The maple syrup or honey, melted coconut oil or butter, and vanilla extract should be mixed together in a separate bowl using a whisk until the mixture is smoothly combined and completely smooth.
- Combine the dry ingredients in the large mixing bowl, and then pour the liquid ingredients on top of them.
Ā
- In order to ensure that all of the dry ingredients are evenly coated with the wet mixture, stir the mixture thoroughly using a spatula or a wooden spoon.
- To ensure that the flavours are distributed evenly, make sure that everything is thoroughly incorporated.
Ā
- After the baking sheet has been prepared, transfer the granola mixture onto it. Spread it out in a single layer, making sure that it is not too thick to prevent it from baking evenly with the rest of the ingredients.
- Utilising the back of the spoon or spatula, apply a light amount of pressure to the mixture in order to slightly compact it.
Ā
- In an oven that has been preheated, place the baking sheet and bake it for twenty to twenty-five minutes, or until the granola is golden brown and crisp.
- Stir the mixture halfway through the baking process to ensure that it bakes evenly. During the final few minutes, make sure to keep a close eye on it to prevent it from burning.
Ā
- The granola should be removed from the oven once it has finished baking, and it should be allowed to cool completely on the baking sheet.
- When the granola has reached the desired temperature, sprinkle the remaining raisins over it and gently toss to combine.
Ā
- After the granola has cooled, measure it out and place it in a jar or container that can seal tightly.
- The maximum amount of time that it can be stored at room temperature is two weeks; however, once you have tried it, it is highly unlikely to remain that long!
Ā
- You can enjoy your homemade cinnamon-raisin granola as a satisfying snack on its own, or you can serve it with yoghurt or milk that you have prepared.
