Easy-Does-It Granola

This easy-does-it granola is a nutritious, vegetarian breakfast staple that far surpasses shop-bought varieties. Combining the earthy crunch of toasted walnuts and almonds with the natural sweetness of honey and chewy dried fruits, it offers a wonderful balance of textures. Baking the oats in a honey-butter glaze ensures every cluster is golden and fragrant, making your kitchen smell like a professional bakery while it toasts.

Perfect for a busy weekday morning or a slow weekend brunch, this versatile cereal is excellent served with chilled milk or a dollop of Greek yoghurt. The addition of salted pumpkin seeds provides a subtle savoury edge that complements the dried strawberries and dates beautifully. Prepared in bulk and stored in an airtight jar, it remains crisp and delicious for up to a month.

Ingredients for Easy-Does-It Granola

  • 150g walnut halves

  • 150g whole almonds, with skins

  • 725g old-fashioned rolled oats

  • 2 sticks (230g ) unsalted butter, melted

  • 80ml honey, at room temperature

  • 1/2 teaspoons salt

How to make Easy-Does-It Granola

Preheat oven to 191°C. Line 2 large shallow baking sheets with foil. Place walnuts and almonds on one sheet and toast until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Let cool, then coarsely chop and set aside.

Reduce oven temperature to 149°C. Divide oats between baking sheets. In medium bowl, melt butter in microwave. Stir in honey and salt. Drizzle mixture onto oats and stir well with rubber spatula.

Spread oats in even layer and bake, stirring once and switching positions of pans halfway through, until golden, about 30 minutes (mixture will crisp as it cools). Transfer to large bowl, cool, add remaining ingredients, and toss well.

Store airtight at room temperature up to one month.
