My Favourite Granola

A great breakfast or crunchy snack to have on hand. This granola tastes like peanut butter and syrup on toast (a favourite combination of mine)! Tastes amazing on its own, with yoghurt or milk.

  • 2 tsp sesame seeds

  • 1/2 cup shopped dates

  • dried apricots (add as much as you’ll like)

  • 3-4 Tblsp golden syrup OR honey (can do half/half)

  • 1/2 cup shredded or desiccated coconut

  • 1/8 tsp salt

  • 3 tsp coconut oil

  • 1/2 cup chopped cashews (or nut or your choice)
