Ingredients
  

  • 300 g rolled oats
  • 100 g mixed nuts roughly chopped
  • 50 g pumpkin seeds
  • 50 g sunflower seeds
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 120 ml honey or maple syrup
  • 80 ml vegetable or melted coconut oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 80 g dried fruit

Method
 

  1. Mix oats, nuts, seeds, cinnamon and salt.
  2. Stir in honey, oil and vanilla until evenly coated.
  3. Press firmly onto a lined tray.
  4. Bake at 160°C / 140°C fan / Gas 3 for 30–35 minutes without stirring.
  5. Cool completely, undisturbed, about 1 hour.
  6. Break into clusters, stir through dried fruit.

Notes

Pressing the mixture down firmly is essential for proper clusters.
Don't stir during baking or while still warm — this breaks up the clusters.
Keeps well at room temperature for up to 3 weeks in an airtight container.
Add dried fruit after baking to avoid it burning or hardening.
