Method

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 160°C/140°C fan. Mix together the oil, ground ginger, cinnamon, fresh ginger and maple syrup in a bowl, and mix well to combine. Combine the oats and seeds in a large bowl and pour over the liquid. Stir to combine and then divide the granola mixture between two baking trays so you have a thin layer on each tray.

Step 2
Bake for 20 minutes, tossing the granola mix once half way through. Drizzle over the honey and stir in the dried fruits.

Step 3
Return to the oven for another 10 minutes until golden and crisp. Allow to cool completely before transferring to a sealable bag or tub. Will keep for up to two weeks.
