Vegan Cinnamon Granola with Cardamom

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 170 C and line a baking tray with grease-proof paper.

Step 2

Add the oats, seeds and nuts to a large bowl.

Step 3

Melt the coconut oil in a frying pan over a low heat, then keep the heat on low and add the nut butter and maple syrup. Stir consistently until no lumps remain.

Step 4

Remove the frying pan from the heat and stir in the cinnamon, cardamom, vanilla and sea salt.

Step 5

Pour the wet mixture into the large bowl and mix until fully combined.

Step 6

Spread the granola mixture into a very thin layer on the lined tray, using a spatula to press it together so that clumps form.

Step 7

Bake for 25 minutes, then remove from the oven and stir to ensure even baking. Sprinkle over the raisins, and return to the oven for a further 10 minutes. Allow to cool fully before storing in an airtight container.
