Extreme Granola

Ingredients for Extreme Granola

• 110g pecans

• 45g natural almonds

• 350g old-fashioned rolled oats

• 25g sesame seeds (optional)

• 1 stick (8 tablespoons ) unsalted butter

• 80ml pure maple syrup, cane syrup or honey, at room temperature

• 1/4 teaspoons fine salt

• 110g chopped dates

• 80g dried blueberries or raisins

How to make Extreme Granola

Preheat the oven to 191°C. Line a large shallow baking sheet with foil. Spread the pecans and almonds on the sheet and roast for 8 to 10 minutes, until lightly toasted. Transfer the nuts to a board, let cool and chop the nuts. Set aside.

Reduce the oven temperature to 149°C. Pour the oats and sesame seeds, if using, in a mound on the same baking sheet. Melt the butter in a small bowl in the microwave; stir in the maple syrup and salt and drizzle on top of the oats. Stir well with a rubber spatula and then spread out the oats in an even layer.

Bake the oats for 30 minutes, stirring once with the spatula halfway through, until the oats are lightly coloured. Let cool; the mixture will crisp as it cools. Add the dates, blueberries, and reserved nuts and toss.
