Cashew ginger granola

Here I am with another granola combination for you to try.

Granola is great as you always mix just ingredients you fancy or have available and you have a great breakfast or snack ready in few minutes.

This time I decided to make one with a hint of ginger and quinoa.

Ingredients needed:
2 cups oats
1 cup soaked and drained quinoa
1 cup cashew nuts (coarsely cut)
handful dried apricots (cut in small pieces)
1/4 cup melted coconut oil
1/2 cup maple sirup (or date sirup)
sesame seeds
ground ginger
bit of fresh grated ginger (as I didnt have caramelized one)
cinnamon
salt

Instructions:
Mix oats, quinoa, sesame seeds and cashew together.
In a small bowl mix remaining ingredients together (a part from apricots) and pour over the dry ones. 
Mix well and spread equally on the baking paper sheet on the pan. 
Bake at 150°C for about 20-30mins until fragrant and light brown. 
Its necessary to mix it time to time so you prevent it from burning!!!  
Leave to cool down, add apricots and store in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-4 weeks or in the refrigerator for up to 6 weeks.

Enjoy x
