Method

1

Gather and prepare your ingredients. Preheat the oven to 170°C/150°C fan. Line a large baking tray with baking parchment.

2

In a large bowl, mix together the oats, nuts, coconut flakes, seeds, spices and grated carrot.

3

In a small saucepan, combine the honey, peanut butter, vanilla and coconut oil. Place over a gentle low–medium heat and stir until just melted and well mixed.

4

Pour the melted mixture over the dry ingredients and stir until everything is coated.

5

In a small bowl, gently whisk the egg whites until frothy. Pour over the granola mixture and stir to combine.

6

Transfer the granola mixture to the lined baking tray and spread out in an even layer. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and press everything down with a spatula.

7

Place in the oven for 30–35 minutes until golden and crisp. Leave to cool completely on the baking tray before breaking up into clusters.

8

Stir through the raisins and store in an airtight container.
