5-minute 1-pan Gluten-free Granola

Most people think granola takes ages to make. We wanted to see if it was possible to make it in 5 minutes in 1 pan and it turns out it is very possible! This recipe is quick, easy and will last for months in an airtight jar and well worth having a punt at. It is also grain and gluten free.

Makes 300g 

Ingredients

40g almonds

40g walnuts

40g desiccated coconut

30g sunflower seeds

80g pumpkin seeds

1 tablespoon chia seeds

pinch of salt

pinch of cinnamon

2 tablespoons coconut oil (35g)

35ml maple syrup

½ teaspoon vanilla essence

Instructions:

• Add the mixed nuts, desiccated coconut, sunflower, pumpkin and chia seeds to the food processor and pulse until all ingredients are roughly chopped but still have some texture remaining.
• Put a large wide-bottomed pan on a high heat and add the coconut oil and maple syrup, and heat until coconut oil is melted. Stir occasionally so that it doesn't burn.
• Add the nut and seed mixture, as well as the vanilla extract, the salt and cinnamon to the pan and mix thoroughly with the oil and maple mixture. Cook for approximately 3 minutes, or until the nut mixture starts to colour and brown, ensuring to stir continuously.
• Remove from the heat and leave to cool. When serving, add any of the ideas below to give it that edge and take it to the next level!
• Pimp with: cacao nibs and raisins
• Serve with: dairy-free milk or coconut yogurt, or it goes great as a topping on top of porridge.
