Sunflower Apple Granola with Honey

February 13th, 2009 by Margot

Coffee and Vanilla

INGREDIENTS

750g oats (use organic oats if possible)
12 tbs (about 300g jar) clear local honey
6 tbs Carotino oil
100g dried apples
100g sunflower seeds
100g nuts such as  hazelnuts or  Brazil nuts (chopped coarsely)

EQUIPMENT

two large baking trays lined with non-stick Teflon sheets

METHOD

Combine all ingredients except nuts together, spread on baking tray and bake in the oven preheated to 150°C (302°F) for about 15 minutes, stirring few times in between. Add also nuts and seeds, stir well and bake for another 15 minutes.
At the end stir in also apples.

Let it cool down before transferring to the storage container. I used cookie tin.

Granola taste good with some milk or natural yogurt.

  • Add more honey for sweeter taste and more clusters.
  • Choose more flaky oats for softer texture.
  • You can use any dried fruits, but add them at the end, they don’t need baking. I used homemade dried apples that my father sent me from his garden, tangy and delicious ;)

    Ive been wanting to make granola for the longest time, so thanks for sharing this recipe. The homemade dried apples sound incredible. Could I dry apples in an oven?

    The granola looks lovely in those crunchy big clusters. For a super apple flavor, I’ve cooked down apple juice to a sweet apple syrup with a honey-like consistency.
