    Serves: 2 (granola recipe makes about 2 litres)
    Cooking Time: 1 hour 50 mins

    Ingredients

    • GRANOLA

    • 500g oats
    • 120g sesame seeds
    • 5ml (1 tsp) ground cinnamon
    • 150g golden syrup
    • 80ml (1/3 cup) runny honey
    • 100g light brown sugar
    • 250g almonds
    • 2,5ml (½ tsp) salt
    • 30ml (2 tbsp) sunflower oil
    • 300g raisins
    • STEWED FRUIT

    • 250ml (1 cup) mixed dried fruit
    • 125ml (½ cup) water
    • 45ml (3 tbsp) brown sugar
    • 2,5ml (½ tsp) ground cinnamon
    • juice of ½ lemon
    • 400ml double-thick vanilla yoghurt

    Instructions

    1

    For the granola, combine all the ingredients, except the raisins. Use two spatulas for mixing to ensure even distribution. Spread the mixture out on 2 baking trays and bake until crispy, about 40 minutes. Stir 2 – 3 times during baking so that it doesn’t burn

    2

    Remove from the oven and leave to cool, then mix in the raisins. Store in an airtight container until needed (see Cook’s Tips below).

    3

    For the stewed fruit, combine the fruit, water, sugar and cinnamon in a small saucepan. Stew over a low heat until soft and thick, about 1 hour. Just before serving, add the lemon juice. (See Cook’s Tips below.)

    4

    Layer the granola, stewed fruit and yoghurt in 2 bowls and serve.

    Notes

    Granola will keep for up to two weeks in an airtight container. The stewed fruit will keep up to a week in the fridge. Simply warm before serving.
