This morning, I made this easy to make no-oil granola! You can change the nuts & use whatever nuts you have in the house, but keep the amounts. You will love it too! I like to serve the granola, still warm, with a good vegan soy yoghurt or with warm home-made cashew milk! ;) This would make an ideal food gift too! :)

Recipe: For 8 big portions
Ingredients:

60 gr hazelnuts ( 1/2 cup )

60 gr cashews (1/2 cup )

40 gr pecans ( less than 1/2 cup )

100 ml maple syrup, grade C ( 1/3 cup + a bit more than 1 tablespoon )

280 gr oats, I used Gluten-free medium-sized oats ( 3 cups + 1/2 cup )

Method:

1. Preheat your oven to 150° C ( 300 F ) for 10 minutes. Place cashews & pecans on a chopping board. With a big knife, cut cashews & pecans into

2. Place them into a fitted bowl & ad hazelnuts & oats. Pour maple syrup over it & mix well with a wooden spoon. Take a roasting tin & butter it with vegan butter. Place butter paper in it, push it down & into the sides. Pour your granola to be in it, in 1 even layer. Place into the lower shelf of your oven & bake for about 15 minutes. There is no need to turn the granola over every 5 minutes. When ready, the granola has been roasted & is brown in color & your kitchen will smell amazing!

Enjoy, while still a bit hot & leave the rest to cool down & place into a fitted pot & stash away for tomorrow morning or the day after,…:) 2. I loved it with warm home-made cashew milk, of course!
