Coconut Cream Pie Granola

I am an 80 year-old grandfather of 10. My wife and I are raising our youngest grandchild, who is now 11 years old. I enjoy cooking and baking bread. I like to make fresh pasta particularly ravioli; l also enjoy making breakfast meals.

500g | 4 cups old fashioned oats

100g | 7 tbsp melted virgin coconut oil

100g | ½ cup cane sugar

200g | 2 cups | 1 bag shredded, unsweetened coconut

100g | ¾ cup slivered almonds or sunflower seeds (optional, for added protein)

Zest of 3 limes

Pinch of salt

subheading: * Ingredient notes:

For coconut oil, virgin coconut oil smells and tastes like coconut. Refined coconut oil smells and tastes like nothing, so it won’t add to the flavour - I would use butter if you don’t want to buy virgin coconut oil.

For shredded coconut, be sure to read the ingredients to avoid additives like propylene glycol (an anti-caking agent). I buy Camino brand, as the only ingredient is shredded coconut. Use unsweetened coconut, the sweetened one will make this recipe sickly sweet.
