This version, slightly adapted from the 'Detox Recipe' book is a healthy, delicious option to consider for breakfast. Even my kids would forego a Macdonalds to have this sprinkled on some Greek yoghurt with a drizzle of honey.... To get the 'full' detox effect however eat with skimmed/rice milk or natural yoghurt and fresh fruit.

Ingredients

6 serv.
  • g oats, try to get organic ones225 g
  • g sunflower seeds60 g
  • g sliced almonds60 g
  • g hazelnuts, crushed60 g
  • tablespoons clear honey2 tablespoons
  • tablespoons sunflower oil2 tablespoons
  • ml water85 ml
  • teaspoon vanilla extract1 teaspoon
  • teaspoon ground cinnamon1 teaspoon
  • g of finely chopped apricots85 g

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 170 degrees C/Gas mark 5.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl mix oats, sunflower seeds, almonds and hazlenuts.

  3. 3

    In a separate bowl combine the honey, oil, water, vanilla extract and cinnamon. I find putting this in the microwave for a minute heats it sufficiently to mix the ingredients.

  4. 4

    Add liquid to the dry ingredients and mix well.

  5. 5

    Spread out on a large baking tray and bake in the oven for 30/40 minutes. You will need to stir/turn it occasionally until evenly browned. I wait until it is done then turn off the oven and leave the door open. This way it seems to fully dry out and stays crisp for longer.

  6. 6

    When cool add the apricots, cut into thin slivers. Mix and store in an airtight tub.

  7. 7

    A nice alternative is to use pecan nuts instead of hazlenuts. Do crush/chop the nuts yourself though as, if you buy the uniformly shop bought chopped ones, the texture is all wrong.
