Citrus Granola

Very quick to prepare, this stores in an airtight jar. I used a few drops of orange essential oil to boost the flavour in this, but any orange flavoured liqueur will do the trick, too.
Prep Time 5 mins
Cook Time 25 mins
Total Time 30 mins
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut
- 2 cups of oats
- 1 cup of roughly chopped Singing Magpie Produce pecans
- 1/2 cup of roughly chopped Singing Magpie Produce dried Smyrna quince
- 2 Tbsp chia seeds
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- zest of one Riverland orange
- Orange essential oil or orange liqueur
Preheat oven to 180C.
Spread coconut, oatmeal and nuts on a large, lined tray and toast for approx 10 minutes, stirring them around twice in that time to prevent them burning.
Cool slightly.
Combine chia seeds, maple syrup,spices, quince and orange zest in a large bowl, add cooled dried ingredients and mix well. Add a few drops of orange oil or a little orange liqueur and mix that in well.
Spread mix out evenly on lined tray and toast in oven for 10-15 minutes, again stirring around at least twice to prevent burning. Remove when golden.
Cool and store in airtight jar.
