Ingredients

  • 500 g Oat bran, raw

  • 100 g Seeds, pumpkin

  • 100 g Nuts, almonds

  • 100 ml Oil, plant, coconut

  • 6 spoon Honey

  • 2 teaspoons Spices, cinnamon, ground

  • 1.5 teaspoons Spices, ginger, ground

  • pieces Orange, shell

  • 80 g Cranberries, dried

Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 170°C (340°F). Roughly chop the nuts, add them to a large bowl, and mix with the oats and seeds.

  2. In a small pot, heat the coconut oil and add the spices and honey. Mix well to create a smooth mixture, then stir in the grated orange zest.

  3. Pour the hot mixture over the dry ingredients and mix everything thoroughly with a spatula. Transfer the mixture to a baking tray lined with parchment paper and spread it evenly in a layer about 2 cm thick. If needed, lightly press the mixture against the bottom of the tray with the spatula.

  4. Bake the granola in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Stir it well every 5 to 10 minutes to prevent the oats, seeds, and nuts from burning.

  5. Once the oats turn golden brown, remove the tray from the oven. Let the granola cool completely.

  6. Mix the dried cranberries into the cooled granola. Serve it with milk or Greek yogurt and fresh fruit.
