Hey Granola lovers ! A long due recipe, finally available on the blog :)
If you love Sicily, pistachios and apricots, then this granola will become a permanent in your pantry :)
Super flavorful, with a nice spice hint and a subtle olive oil flavor (yum), crusty, nutty,... and of course gluten free, refined sugar free and Vegan.
If you want to change pistachios for other nuts (cheaper ones like almonds could also work ) and you can use other dry fruits if you don't have apricots (cherries would also be a good combo with the pistachios :).
Super easy recipe just below. Try and enjoy :)
Ingredients
3 cups GF rolled oats
3/4 cup raw pistachios
1,5 cup raw pumpkin seeds
3/4 cup coconut chips (can be omitted if you don't like coconut)
1/2 cup maple syrup (depending on your sweet tooth :)
½ cup extra virgin olive oil
1,5 tsp sea salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
2/3 cup chopped dried apricots
Instructions
Preheat oven to 145°C fan forced
Combine everything except the coconut flakes and apricots and ensure it is well coated.
Spread it in a thin even layer on your baking tray layered with baking paper
Bake for 15 minutes, stir, then bake again for 15 min. Add the coconut flakes and bake for 5 min more
Take it out from the oven, add the chopped apricots and let it cool down completely before transferring to an airtight container
Nb: can keep for a few weeks (though doubt it will last that long) and can also be frozen for longer shelf life.
