Homemade Superfood Granola Recipe
400g Rolled jumbo oats. 200g Various nuts ( I used chopped Hazelnuts,Cashew nuts, walnuts, Pistachios and Almond flakes). 100g Various seeds (I used Chia, Sunflower seeds and Flaxseeds). 50g dried fruit (I used dried Cranberries and Goji berries). Binding material - 20ml of unflavoured oil (e.g. Rapeseed or Sunflower) Sweetener - Now you've got 3 options that are relatively acceptable - 30mls of either Agave Nectar, Stevia or Honey [2]. Use them sparingly, because although they have a smaller effect in raising blood sugar, they are at the end of the day, still going to be insulinogenic (causes the release of insulin) which has it's own problems. The day we discover a non-glycaemic non-insulinogenic sweetener, I will have a granola party. Because afterall, I am still Angela, the sugar addict.
