An ideal crunch to have for breakfast with milk or yoghurt, as a snack, or as a topping for ice-cream.
Ingredients
- 3 cups (270g) rolled oats
- 1/2 cup (40g) shredded coconut
- 11/4 cups (100g) dried banana chips
- 4 cups (80g) puffed rice, toasted
- 50g dark chocolate, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup (50g) cocoa powder
- ½ cup (110g) firmly packed CSR Brown Sugar
- ¾ cup (270g) honey
Method
- Preheat oven to 160°C/140°C fan-forced. Grease a large baking tray; line with baking paper.
- Combine rolled oats, coconut, banana chips, puffed rice, chocolate and cocoa powder in a large heatproof bowl.
- Bring sugar and honey to the boil in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir until sugar dissolves.
- Carefully pour sugar mixture over the dry ingredients and stir to coat.
- Spread half the mixture onto prepared tray. Reserve remaining granola for Bananas 4 Choc Granola Bars (see recipe to right).
- Bake for 25 minutes, stirring occasionally to break into clumps. Cool completely on tray. Granola will crisp up and harden on cooling.
- Store granola in an airtight container for up to 3 weeks.
KIDS’ TIP: You can also add additional ingredients to the granola, such as dried fruit and nuts.
