Scrumptious sesame granola


I love love love granola but I avoid buying it from the shops as they are usually full with refined sugars and additives. So, I make my own granola and it is soo easy! If you love sesame snaps, I'm sure you will love this simply delightful sesame granola recipe too.

Makes 2 jam jars full:

  • 2 cups oats
  • 8 tbsp agave nectar
  • 1 and a half tbsp coconut oil
  • 4tbsp sesame seeds


-Preheat oven 260.
-Mix all ingredients into a mixing bowl, then microwave for about 30secs so that the coconut oil melts. Give it all another mix making sure everything is pretty much coated (not dry).
-Line a tray with greaseproof (parchment) paper, and spread your oat mixture out evenly. 
-Turn the oven down to 180, then place your tray into the oven.
-Leave it in the oven for 20 mintues or so, but keep checking up on it as it will burn if quickly if you leave it to). Also it's a good idea to mix it about after about 10 minutes, to allow different bits to cook (within that 20 mins). When it's turned an even gold colour, it's ready. Leave to stand (this is when it will harden, so don't worry that it's not crispy when you first take it out of the oven).

Enjoy at breakfast or even as a snack :)
