Super Speedy Granola

So I have a new found love of Granola. Served with vanilla yoghurt and some fresh berries, you can't really get a better breakfast in my opinion. The only downside is that supermarket bought Granola is RIDICULOULY EXPENSIVE. Like seriously.

So here's my recipe for an incredibly quick homemade granola, that doesn't break the bank. In fact, you yield about four times as much in this recipe as you would with just buying a bag from the supermarket, and at just a fraction of the cost!

Ingredients
3 cups of porridge oats
3tbsp. light brown sugar
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. salt
1/3 cup honey
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 tsp. vanilla essence

Optional Ingredients
1/2 cup small-dice dried fruit
1/2 cup coarsely chopped raw or toasted nuts or seeds

Method
Pre-heat your oven to 150C, and place a shelf in the middle of the oven.
Mix together the oats, sugar, cinnamon and salt in a bowl.
In a separate bowl, mix together the honey, vegetable oil and vanilla essence, and then pour over the oat mix.
Mix together the wet and dry ingredients thoroughly before spreading over a lipped baking tray.
Place into the centre of the oven and bake for 10 minutes. Stir and place back in the oven for another 5 minutes.
Repeat this process for the next 10 minutes, checking often, until the oats become golden brown.
Once golden brown, remove a little from the tray and leave on the side to cool for a few moments.
If it crisps up, its ready so remove the tray from the oven.
Stir in the optional ingredients (dried fruit and seeds/nuts).
Leave to cool in the tray on a wire rack until completely cool, and then pour into an air tight container to store.

There you have it!
How simple was that?

Enjoy, and let me know what you think. As always, happy baking.

Rocky Road is a delightful dessert. It always goes down a treat at parties, coffee mornings, at home with the family-pretty much anywhere to be honest.

It also makes 12 generous portions so there's no need to fiddle on with multiplying the recipe to make sure it serves everyone. Great right? So without further a do, here's the recipe!

Rosemary, Black Pepper and Sea Salt Scones

Image
Hello! Today's recipe is a makeshift one. I fancied making some scones, but wasn't too sure what type or what shape to make, and so I ended up picking some fresh rosemary from the garden, and pairing it with some cracked black pepper and sea salt flakes. They turned out pretty scrummy! Ingredients 2 cups plain flour 4 tsp baking powder 1/4 tsp sea salt flakes, plus a little extra to finish 1 tsp sugar 1 tbsp. butter 1 tbsp. freshly chopped rosemary (or 1 tsp of dried) 1 cup milk (I didn't use the whole cup full, but you can use the remainder for washing before baking.) Method Pre-heat the oven to 220C. Sift the dry ingredients into a bowl, and rub in the butter. Add the rosemary, and mix again, before adding the milk. Combine with your hands to form a soft dough. Roll out on to a floured board to 1.5 inch thickness and cut into either rounds or squares. I also shaped some of mine into a doughnut shape by rolling out a section of the dough into a long thin ...
