Homemade Honey Nut Granola

Toasted granola with oats, nuts, seeds and agave honey. Crunchy and golden — serve with yogurt, milk or as a snack.

Ingredients

• 1 cup rolled oats
• ¼ cup nuts
• ¼ cup pumpkin seeds
• ¼ cup sunflower seeds
• ¼ cup agave honey
• ¼ cup coconut oil
• ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
• ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
• ¼ cup dried fruit

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 160°C (325°F) and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
2. Perform 'mise en place' by mixing oats, nuts, and seeds in a bowl large enough to avoid spills when combining.
3. Emulsify the agave honey with the hot coconut oil (approx. 60°C/140°F) and incorporate the vanilla extract and ground cinnamon.
4. Pour the emulsion over the dry ingredients and homogenize until the entire surface of the oats is hydrated and shiny.
5. Distribute evenly on the baking sheet, ensuring the layer thickness does not exceed one centimeter for optimal toasting.
6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through the process to ensure uniform coloring.
7. Remove when golden amber. Cool to room temperature to allow sugar crystallization (crunchy texture).
8. Incorporate the dried fruits once the base is cool to prevent them from hardening from residual heat.
9. Package in airtight containers and store in a dry place for up to 14 days.
