How do you make granola? I thought it came out of a goat or something.
SRS question, not taking the piss.
I will answer honestly. I've altered this recipe to personal taste somewhat over the years but along these lines:
400 grams of rolled oats (choose the biggest oats they have, "jumbo" is usually the phrase, smaller ones will work as well but they'll burn quicker)
50g of pumpkin seeds
50g sunflower seeds
half a bag of mixed nuts--around 250g
1/3 cup of vegetable oil
2/3 cup of honey
Oven on at 180 degrees (original recipe said lower than this but FUCK THAT).
Line two baking trays with greaseproof paper.
Put the oats and seeds in a mixing bowl. Roughly chop the nuts (this takes about half a fucking hour I'm sorry, it's the biggest task) and add them to the mixing bowl and give them a good stir.
Make a bit of a well in the middle of the mixture and add the oil and honey. Stir everything really well.
Divide the mixture between the two baking trays and spread out into a thin layer. It bakes better at the outer edges for whatever reason so try not to let it all clump in the middle.
Stick it in the oven for 30-35 minutes. Maybe stir halfway through to ensure its consistent.
I like to have it starting to toast/burn before taking it out. My original recipe said to let it cool on the trays but i find it sticks to the greaseproof paper so i immediately pour it all into a container and let it cool there. It'll all stick together eventually so make sure you can shake the container and maybe dig around to break it up.
Definitely tastes better once it's cooled, your house will smell great for the day.
You can add more or less oil and honey depending how "healthy" you want to make it. You could also add dried fruit or coconut if that's your thing i guess.
Serve with yoghurt, preferably Greek.
Alternatively: make loads and charge through the nose at your local farmers market.

That's what I said, yeahYou get the hoof of the goat and shave off some filings, put that in a bowl with a load of goats milk
