Step 1

Preheat oven to 150C / 300F. Line two baking trays with baking paper.

Step 2

In a small pan over a med/low heat, melt the maple syrup and coconut oil together. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Allow to cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large bowl, mix the oats, pecans, coconut, seeds, cranberries, crystallised ginger and spices together. Pour in the maple syrup mixture and mix well.

Step 4

Spread out in a thin layer on the baking sheets and bake for about 20 minutes or until golden, stirring occasionally to ensure that it cooks evenly.

Step 5

Leave the granola to cool - it will harden and crisp up on the tray. Store in an airtight container.
