Homemade Muesli with Dried Fruit – Gluten-free version

👨‍🍳 Method

1. 1
   Preheat the oven to 170°C (340°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

   💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
2. 2
   In a large bowl, mix the gluten-free oats, almonds and walnuts.

   💡For granola, use whole rolled gluten-free oats, not ground and not instant.
3. 3
   In a small pot over low heat, melt the honey and oil and add the vanilla.

   Bake 20-25 minutes, until the granola is golden. Stir once halfway through so it doesn't burn.

   💡Check by the cue (until…), not just the clock: every oven bakes a little differently.
7. 7
   Take out of the oven and let cool completely: the granola dries out and hardens as it cools.

   💡Dried fruit isn't baked with the granola: add it only after the granola has cooled.
8. 8
   Add the raisins and mix.
9. 9
   Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks so the granola stays crisp.
