Quick and easy make-at-home Granola recipe

Homemade granola with a tropical twist – perfect for breakky or an afternoon snack!

Oats, jaggery or kitul treacle, almonds, raisins, figs and fresh grated coconut toasted until golden and nutty. For spicy sweetness, I added cinnamon powder which also balances kapha and vata dosha with its pungent, warm and spicy qualities.

All wholefoods, so yummy and good for you! Serve with plant milk for Breakky, use as a crunchy topping on desserts, or a health snack on the go..

Use coconut oil in summer but in cold weather, you can use olive or sunflower oil. Consider also using Jaggery as a sweetener in place of sugar or honey. It is the raw, concentrated unrefined juice of sugar cane and comes in solid block form, powder or liquid. It comes both unrefined or washed (semi refined). The unrefined (older, unwashed) jaggery has a cleansing and purifying quality and is warming, which activates digestive enzymes. It balances vata, slightly decreases pitta and in moderation is a tolerable sweetener for kapha dosha too.
