Notes

Tip from my kitchen: stored in an airtight jar the granola stays crunchy for a good 2 weeks – just let it cool completely before filling the jar, otherwise it turns soft. If you don't have chocolate spread, simply melt some dark vegan chocolate into the warm coconut oil. And feel free to vary the nuts and dried fruit with whatever you have in the cupboard.
