Dry Ingredients
- 100g panettone
- 200g rolled oats
- 50g pumpkin seeds
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 500g flaked almonds
- 100g dried berries, raisins or sultanas
- 50g dried cranberries
Wet Ingredients
- 50ml vegetable oil
- 50ml maple syrup
- 50ml honey
To Serve
- milk or yogurt
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Heat the oven to 160C (140C fan)/gas mark 3 and line a large baking tray with baking parchment unless using a non-stick tray.
- Process Panettone: Place the panettone in a food processor and blitz until it forms fine breadcrumbs.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: Transfer the panettone crumbs to a large bowl and add the rolled oats, pumpkin seeds, ground cinnamon, and flaked almonds. Stir to combine evenly.
- Prepare Wet Mixture: In a separate bowl, combine the vegetable oil, maple syrup, and honey until well mixed.
- Coat the Dry Ingredients: Pour the wet mixture over the oat mixture and stir thoroughly to ensure all the oats and nuts are well coated with the syrup and oil blend.
- Bake the Granola: Spread the mixture evenly onto the prepared baking tray in a single layer. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes to ensure even toasting until the granola turns golden brown.
- Cool and Add Fruits: Remove the tray from the oven and allow the granola to cool on the tray for 10 minutes. Once slightly cooled, mix in the dried berries, raisins or sultanas, and dried cranberries.
- Final Cooling and Storage: Let the granola cool completely before storing it in an airtight container. It will keep fresh for up to one month.
- Serve: Enjoy the granola with your choice of milk or yogurt for a nutritious and flavorful breakfast or snack.

- Stirring the granola every 10 minutes during baking ensures it cooks evenly and prevents burning.
- Store granola in an airtight container to maintain its crunchiness.
- Feel free to adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of honey and maple syrup.
