Preparation

Step 1

Mix everything except the raisins together very well in a large mixing bowl.

I use a couple of curved, rigid spatulas; normally, I'd be happy to use my hands, but here

it just leaves you covered with everything.


Spread this mixture out on two baking tins (the sort that come with ovens, and are about the width of a rack) and

bake in a gas mark 3/170°C/300-325ºF oven,

turning over about halfway through baking and re-distributing the granola evenly during the baking process.

The object is to get it evenly golden without toasting too much in any one place.

This should take anything from about 40 minutes.

I use a gas oven, which doesn't brown as fast as an electric one, so often leave it in for up to an hour.

Once it's baked, allow to cool and mix together with the raisins. Store airtight.
