Ingredients

1/4 cup sesame seeds
1/4 cup pumpkin seeds
1/4 cup chia seeds
1/4 cup sunflower seeds
1/4 cup walnuts
1/4 sliced almonds
1/4 cup flaked coconut, unsweetened
1/4 cup other nuts (your choice)
1 egg white
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup butter, melted

Note: all nuts and seeds are unsalted

Instructions

Preheat over to 160 C (with fan) or 320 F.
Combine nuts, seeds and cinnamon in a bowl. Mix well.
In a separate bowl combine egg white, vanilla and melted butter. Whisk together and add to bowl with dry ingredients. Mix well to coat all ingredients.
Spread mixture evenly over parchment lined baking pan.
Place pan in the oven and bake for about 10 minutes. When everything starts to brown, remove from the oven and use a spatula to turn the granola. Return to oven and bake for another 5-10 minutes.
Remove from oven. Allow to cool completely so the granola forms crunchy clusters.
Enjoy over yogurt, with fruit, or even just a crunch snack on its own. Granola can be stored for up to one week in an air tight container.
