Homemade Granola

This recipe I adapted from other recipes I found in other blogs. 


My granola just after add fruits


Most of them had too much sugar and here at home we try to avoid sugar, although some ingredients of this recipe include sugar. After search for few days, I found one recipe in the blog Sal de Bolinha that I used as base for my first granola. However we thought the granola was very sweet.

I found another recipe in Bolsa de Mulher and mixed both recipes. 

This granola should be stored in an airtight container up to 20 days. However, I cannot confirm this information as it is finished within 12 days.

Ingredients:

300 g - Jumbo oats

50 g - Golden linseed

23 g - wheat bran

54 g - rye flakes

60 g - pumpkin seeds

60 g - sunflower seeds

100 mL - concentrated apple juice (no added sugar)

100 g - mixed peel

150 g - trail mix

3.5 tbsp - olive oil (you can use any oil)

1 tsp - Seasoning Apple and orange (you can mix ginger and cinnamon)



Instructions:


Heat the oven to 180°C.

Place the oats, linseed, wheat bran, rye flakes, pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds in a large bowl and stir to combine; set aside.

Place the apple juice, oil, and the seasoning in a small bowl and stir to combine.

Pour over the oat mixture and mix until the dried ingredients are thoroughly coated.

Spread the mixture in a thin.

Bake for 30 minutes. Note: If you want you can stir the granola after 15 minutes and continue baking until it is very light golden brown, about 5 to 15 minutes more.

Place the thin on a wire rack and cool the granola to room temperature, stirring occasionally. (Note: It will harden as it cools.)

Add the dried fruits and nuts and toss to combine.

Store the granola in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.



You can eat it with yogurt, fruits or plain.
