My sister gave us this recipe a few years ago. It’s expensive to buy all of the ingredients but they do last you for a few batches especially the oil and vanilla bean paste. It’s really yummy.
500g of good quality oats
Sesame seeds (to taste)
Macadamia nuts
Almonds (skin on)
Sunflower seeds
Pepitas
Sultanas
Macadamia oil
Vanilla bean paste
Honey
Place all your dry ingredients in a large bowl except the Sultanas. I start with the oats and mix in an ingredient at a time usually by the handful. Just put in what you like until you have the mixture that you want.
Mix 2 tablespoons of Macadamia oil and 4 tablespoons of honey on stove over low heat until runny and slightly warm.
Take off stove and stir in 1 large teaspoon of Vanilla bean paste.
Mix with other ingredients then place on a large baking tray (lined with baking paper), spreading the mix out as much as possible.
Cook in oven 160-170 degrees celcius and stir every 5 minutes for even cooking. I like mine brown and toasty.
Add sultanas and any other dried fruits to your liking eg. cranberries, dried apple etc.
I like eating mine with yoghurt. It takes Ma a bit of time to get through a bowl as there is a lot of chewing required!
