Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons coconut oil, or butter, or a mix of both.
- 3 tablespoons rice malt syrup.
- 1/2 cup Pumpkin Purée.
- 2 cups rolled oats.
- 2 cups coconut flakes.
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds.
- 1 teaspoon each of cinnamon, allspice and ginger powders.
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves, optional.
- 2 cups almonds, cashews, peacans, walnuts, pepitas (preferably activated), roughly chopped.
Directions
- 1. Preheat oven to 140°C / 275°F / Gas Mark 1.
2. In a saucepan, melt the oil/butter, syrup and pumpkin puree and bring to a gentle boil.
3. Remove from heat and stir in the oats until well combined, then stir in the remaining ingredients.
4. Spread the mixture evenly on baking paper on a tray and bake for about 20 minutes, until golden, turning halfway.
5. When golden (I like to make mine quite dark; the darker it is, the crunchier it is), remove and cool immediately to get it crispy. Break up the pieces a little then divide into 6 pretty jars. Decorate as you see fit!
