Granola is super trendy. From small to large - everyone loves the crunch in their mouth and homemade coffee granola is also a really healthy energy boost - perfect for starting the day. It can also be used in so many different ways. Whether in yogurt, as a topping for a bowl, or on its own with or without milk. It even works as a topping in a salad. The different ways you can use granola mean that you can be as free as you want when preparing it. Not a fan of walnuts? Then just use hazelnuts. Or don't have any buckwheat at home? No problem. Unsweetened cornflakes or puffed amaranth or quinoa are also fantastic ingredients for a great granola. So: Ready to give your yogurt or bowl a little upgrade? Then this recipe is just right for you.
INGREDIENTS
You need:
- 200g oat flakes
- 100g buckwheat
- 30g walnuts
- 50g sliced almonds
- 50g sunflower seeds
- A pinch of salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- Approx. 60g honey
- 1 espresso (e.g. Espresso Rouge)
- opt. 1 tbsp coffee beans
PREPARATION
Put all the dry ingredients in a pan and toast until the ingredients are lightly browned and start to smell. Then brew the espresso, mix with the honey and add to the granola. If you don't mind an intense coffee aroma, you can add crushed coffee beans. Finally, spread the mixture on a baking tray lined with baking paper and then bake in the oven at 180 degrees for around 20 to 25 minutes. Mix the granola occasionally and keep an eye on it at the end of the baking time so that the granola doesn't get too dark. Then let the granola cool completely. The coffee granola will even keep for weeks in an airtight jar.
