Ingredients

  • 4 cups oats
  • 1 cup chopped mixed nuts, such as almonds, pecans, walnuts, pistachios etc.
  • ½ cup sunflower or pumpkin seeds
  • 1/3 cup coconut oil
  • 2/3 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp cinnamon

Method

  1. Combine the oats, nuts, seeds and cinnamon in a bowl
  2. Mix together the coconut oil, honey or maple syrup and vanilla extract in a saucepan on a low heat until melted
  3. Mix the wet and dry ingredients together in the bowl
  4. Spread the mixture evenly onto a baking tray (you may need two trays depending on the size)
  5. Bake in the oven at 180 degrees for 30 minutes or until crisp. Make sure to keep checking the mixture and stir half way through cooking as it can burn easily.
