My first ever go at making granola, super easy! Used coconut oil instead of vegetable oil and an extra 100g of oats to bulk it up a bit. Tastes great, looking forward to breakfast tomorrow! 👍

Makes leftovers

This is a nice, customisable granola. It doesn't form big chunks, which is likely down to not enough oil/syrup compared to dry ingredients. If you prefer a sweeter/chunkier granola, I'd recommend upping the syrup or oil. This makes a good amount; about what you'd fit in a cereal box. One thing I would change is the baking time; I used 15mins then 7mins but even that came out a wee bit brown. Maybe 10mins then 10mins next time?
