    Instructions
     

    • Preheat the oven to 140 degrees Celsius.
    • You may want to heat the nut butter and honey/maple syrup (if the recipe calls for it) on the stove top in a small saucepan over a medium heat until it starts to bubble. Take off heat and pour into the rest of the recipe.
    • Mix dry ingredients with wet ingredients in a large mixing bowl (leaving out chocolate chips if using).
    • Spread the granola mixture evenly on a lined oven tray. Bake for roughly 12-15 mins until edges start to brown. Take out oven and mix granola with a spoon. Place back into oven and bake until golden brown and toasted.
    • Remove from oven and allow to cool completely. Once cooled, break into granola clusters OR crumble and stir in chocolate chips

    Notes

    *Store in an airtight container to preserve freshness
    **Take note to watch the granola as it burns very quickly.
