Notes

Don't be tempted to break up the granola before it has fully cooled. If you manage to wait, you'll end up with delicious granola clusters. Once cooled, store in an airtight glass jar for up to 1 week.

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, cinnamon, seeds and cacao powder, until well combined.

3

In a small saucepan, combine the honey, almond butter, coffee, vanilla and coconut oil and place over a low–medium heat. Stir until melted and well combined.

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 40 minutes until golden and crisp. Leave to cool completely on the baking tray before breaking up with a spoon and storing in a glass jar.

Very easy recipe. The kids loved it

Deli granola! Definitely a keeper

Verena 3 weeks ago

This recipe will be on repeat. Love it with yoghurt and fruits or a smoothie bowl. Very crunchy. Following the comments I added more “flavor-inducing” ingredients, espresso, cacao, vanilla, maple syrup.

Delicious!

Wendy 1 month ago

Easy to make tastes delicious. Cooked quicker as I didn’t read the fan temperature properly. But managed to realise after 15 mins so saved it before it overcooked. Definitely be making this again

Aarti 1 month ago

This isn’t bad at all.. but it definitely smells a lot better than it tastes! I would also bake it in two batches if I made it again. The sides were starting to burn and the centre could be crisper.

Miriam 1 month ago

This recipe was a major disappointment. Not crisp, even though I put it back in the oven to dry, It almost burned but didn't get crisp. Not sweet enough and I didn't find any similarity to tiramisu.

1 month ago

I’m giving this 5 stars with a caveat.. don’t try it thinking it’s going to be super delicious by itself, if you have previously made granola with a cup or even half a cup of maple syrup. My kids don’t like it as it’s not sweet, however it is crunchy and delicious to eat WITH yogurt and fruit added, and it truly kept me full til lunch (if I ate 100g (ish) of it

1 month ago

I hope to master it. I feel it can be a 5 star recipe if I do it correctly.

I really like this recipe, it is eay to make and I find it filling and love the satisfying crunch/chewiness. I don't like coffee so make using dark drinking chocolate instead. Perfect with yogurt and oat milk for breakfast or a snack.

Penny 1 month ago

Really lovely! Not too sweet either . Goes well with fresh berries and yoghurt .

Gypsy 1 month ago

This granola has great texture and visual appeal. If you are cooking a small batch (3 or 4 servings) and have a small portable oven like me, I'd recommend dropping the temp to 160C and cooking for 30-35 minutes max. 🙂

Pia 1 month ago

I love this recipe, I make it all the time!
It’s worth the effort!

marsha 2 months ago

great recipe

Harris 2 months ago

Particularly disappointing, I was looking forward to it, but it was bland, and flavours were completely lost.

Marijke 3 months ago

Total weight was aroud 932 grams, so one portion would be 116,50 grams. Be careful not to overbake it, I’d check the granola in the oven at 30 minutes.

C 3 months ago

Very delicous, my husbands fav. Didn’t add the coconut oil due to amount of saturated fat added Evoo.

Lorna 3 months ago

Absolutely lovely order more ingredients to keep making 🤭

Allyson 3 months ago

It’s a lovely granola but you can’t taste the coffee at all. Next time I will definitely increase the volume/strength of the coffee

Christine 4 months ago

Disappointingly lacking in flavour for me

4 months ago

It came out absolutely perfect! I did not have any cocoa powder so I added a half a cup of dark chocolate chips (which altered the nutrition value for sure). I also omitted the cinnamon and used ingredients that I had on hand. Peanut butter instead of almond butter. Ghee instead of coconut oil, maple syrup instead of honey ( I don't do honey). It baked great but still was a little moist in the middle. I broke it up into pieces and put it back in the oven at 300 degrees for 20 min. I am having it on top of high protein yogurt. DELICIOUS!

Olga 4 months ago

I’ve burned it a little bit, but in general it turned out tasty, chewy! I’ve enjoyed my first homemade granola with yoghurt and strawberries

Anthony 4 months ago

I will never go back to store bought Granola

Louise 4 months ago

Big test in morning pairing with chia pudding with berries

Ismet 4 months ago

Watch the oven yime, it was about to burn for us in 30m. Taste is pretty good but more like cacao notes were present than coffee and tiramisu. Will do again.

Sam 5 months ago

Delicious. Used tahini instead of almond butter [as I didn’t have any] which worked really well

5 months ago

pretty well
reduced amount of nuts and used chicory syrup instead of maple syrup and less than recommanded, also used about 100g of soy flakes and 300g oats and other grains, 90ml of unsweetened instant coffee, olive oil instead of coconut oil, tasted a bit
- I think, it is pretty nice

Sharon 5 months ago

The only downside of this recipe is that I can’t stop eating it as a snack

Karen 5 months ago

I was excited to try this, but unfortunately didn’t enjoy this granola. It was lacking in flavour and not crunchy enough.

Diane 5 months ago

Oh my goodness! This is divine! The smell in my kitchen was a real pleasure as it baked. The taste is moreish. It's not going to last long. Well worth the effort.

Gaynor 5 months ago

Tasty and a good one to try as another breakfast option

Jacqueline 5 months ago

Easy and delicious. The smell is the kitchen was just like Tiramisu. I will add more coffee or stronger coffee next time

Lisa 5 months ago

Coffee is a DRY ingredient, so I put it with the dry ingredients. Then I read the next step, to add it to the wet ingredients 🤦‍♀️. This could perhaps be amended!

Mandy 5 months ago

Really tasty and made loads may half the recipe next time to keep it fresh. Also added chia seeds and p husk for more fibre
