- 🍯 1–2 tbsp organic honey
- 🥜 2 cups mixed nuts:

- 🌱 ½ cup mixed seeds:

👩🍳 Method
- 🔥 Preheat oven to 180–200°C. Line a baking tray with unbleached baking paper. Use 2 trays if needed.
- 🥣 Add oats to a large mixing bowl.
- 🔪 Roughly chop all nuts and seeds and add to the oats. Chunky pieces are fine!
- 🥄 Melt coconut oil in a small saucepan, then stir in honey until partially combined.
- ➕ Pour oil-honey mixture into the oat mixture and stir until evenly coated.
- 🏋️ Spread mixture evenly on the baking tray. Larger clumps are okay for chunkier granola.
- ⏱ Bake for 20 minutes, then turn mixture over with a spatula or egg lifter for even baking.
- 🔁 Check after another 20 minutes; bake further 10–20 minutes if needed until golden brown.
- ❄️ Remove from oven, cool completely, then store in an airtight glass jar.
✅ Granola keeps for months in an airtight jar. Enjoy with yoghurt, milk, or fruit of choice!
