Ingredients

  • 2 cups 200g rolled oats
  • 1 cup 50g coconut flakes
  • 1/2 cup 70g raw cashews, roughly chopped
  • 1/2 cup 60g raw pecans, roughly chopped
  • 1 Tbsp 10g chia seeds
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/3 cup 100g maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup 65g coconut oil, melted
  • 1 tsp vanilla bean extract
  • 1 large egg white

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 160ºC (320ºF) and line a large flat baking tray with parchment paper, set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine oats, coconut, chopped cashews and pecans, chia seeds and cinnamon. Mix until well combined with a wooden spoon.  
  • Pour in maple syrup, melted coconut oil and vanilla. Mix until well combined. 
  • In a small bowl, add egg white and use a whisk to beat until frothy and white, approx. 1 minute (see photo above). 
  • Pour whipped egg white into granola mixture and mix until well combined. 
  • Spoon and spread granola out onto prepared tray. 
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes or until toasted and golden. Do not stir granola during or after baking, otherwise you won’t get any chunks! 
  • Remove from oven and allow granola to cool completely on tray. 
  • Once cooled, you can gently pick up chunks of granola and transfer them to an airtight container to store for later or serve right away! 
  • Serve with milk or yoghurt, fresh berries and dried fruit!

Notes

Store granola in an airtight container or a glass jar, such as a mason jar, in the pantry, for up to 2 weeks.
