Healthy granola
Isabel López Schena
one medium container
BeginnerWhen I lived in Brighton, i could always find different granola flavours and combinations, it was like heaven... but when I came back to Spain, I had hardly any option to choose from and they were all full of ridiculously high sugar levels, so that is why I have decided to try my own version of homemade granola. After wandering on the internet and thinking through the possibilities of how to make one of my all time favourites, I came up with the following combo. I hope you enjoy it & please do give it a try.

Step 3
Place everything onto a baking tray and bake for about 20-30 minutes at 180C, until it's crunchy. During this time you’ll need to stir the mixture every 5 minutes so that it doesn't burn. Be careful, it burns easily!
