The perfect granola in texture and flavour, this simple recipe contains just four ingredients and takes little time to make. Enjoy topping yoghurt or smoothie bowls, by the handful as a snack or with plant milk alone or with dried fruits, jam or compote.

Ingredients

70 ml maple syrup
100 g dried apricots
180 g quinoa flakes
130 g almonds

Method

In a food processor or high speed blender, process the almonds and apricots at a low speed until broken and well combined but retaining some texture.

Transfer to a bowl and mix well with the quinoa flakes. Add the maple syrup and combine by hand, clumping the mixture together to create a sticky and crumbly granola.

Bake at 140°C for 25 minutes, mixing with a spoon every 5 minutes after the first 5 minutes of baking.

Allow to cool completely before transferring to an airtight container.

Enjoy!
