Air fryer oat walnut granola

Air fryer oat walnut granola with maple syrup and cinnamon. Roast in a shallow closed-bottom dish, stir frequently and cool completely.

Ingredients

6 servings

Method

  1. 1

    Prepare

    Roughly chop walnuts. Mix with oats and cinnamon in a bowl.

  2. 2

    Mix and season

    Mix in maple syrup and oil until oats bind. Spread shallowly in a closed-bottom dish, not directly in the perforated basket. Use a heatproof dish suitable for the appliance, leaving space around it for airflow. Do not preheat with loose paper.

  3. 3

    Cook

    If required by the manufacturer, preheat for 3 minutes at 140 °C. Roast about 12 minutes at 140 °C, stirring thoroughly every 3 minutes. Remove when oats are golden; do not wait for dark nuts.

  4. 4

    Check and serve

    Spread on a clean tray and cool completely for 20 minutes. Transfer to a clean airtight jar only when dry and cold.
