Description

A highly addictive banana bread-flavored granola, with hints of cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg. Oil-free, sugar-free and totally delicious.

Ingredients

  • 2 whole Large Ripe (Brown Speckled) Bananas, Peeled
  • 3 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
  • 1-½ teaspoon Ground Ginger
  • ¼ teaspoons Freshly Grated Nutmeg
  • 1 cup Pumpkin Seeds
  • 1 cup Walnuts, Roughly Chopped
  • 3-½ cups Oats (add More/less Depending On Desired Consistency And Banana Size)
  • 1-½ cup Raisins

Preparation

Preheat oven to 180ºC (350ºF) and line 2 large deep baking trays.

In a big bowl, mash the bananas into a puree, then mix in the spices.

Add all of the remaining ingredients, except the raisins, to the bowl, adding the oats gradually until you reach your desired consistency (my preference varies but for this batch I went for a much less clumpy mix).

Using your hands, mix until everything is nicely coated.

Distribute the mixture evenly between the trays and spread out well to ensure even cooking.

Pop in the oven for 30-45, removing to move it all around a bit once or twice to make sure that it all bakes evenly and remove from the oven once it’s nicely browned. Add the raisins when the granola is still warm and lightly mix.

Leave to cool completely on the trays before storing in glass jars or an airtight container for up to 1 month.
