Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 100g panettone
  • 200g rolled oats
  • 50g pumpkin seeds
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 500g flaked almonds
  • 100g dried berries, raisins, or sultanas
  • 50g dried cranberries

Wet Ingredients

  • 50ml vegetable oil
  • 50ml maple syrup
  • 50ml honey

To Serve

  • milk or yogurt

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Heat the oven to 160°C (140°C fan)/gas mark 3 and line a large baking tray with baking parchment, unless using a non-stick tray which doesn’t require lining.
  2. Prepare Panettone Crumbs: Place the panettone into a food processor and blitz until it forms fine breadcrumbs.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: Transfer the panettone crumbs into a large bowl and add the rolled oats, pumpkin seeds, ground cinnamon, and flaked almonds. Mix thoroughly to combine.
  4. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the vegetable oil, maple syrup, and honey. Stir well to blend evenly.
  5. Coat the Dry Mix: Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients and stir thoroughly to ensure all the oats and seeds are evenly coated with the syrupy mixture.
  6. Bake the Granola: Spread the mixture evenly on the prepared baking tray in a single layer. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes to ensure even toasting and prevent burning, until the granola turns golden brown.
  7. Cool Slightly: Remove the tray from the oven and let the granola cool on the tray for 10 minutes.
  8. Add Dried Fruits: Once slightly cooled, stir in the dried berries, raisins or sultanas, and dried cranberries.
  9. Cool Completely and Store: Allow the granola to cool fully before transferring it to an airtight container. It will keep well for up to one month.
  10. Serve: Enjoy your panettone granola with milk or yogurt as a delicious breakfast or snack option.

Notes

  • You can substitute the dried berries with your favorite dried fruits such as chopped apricots or cherries.
  • Use a non-stick baking tray to avoid the need for parchment paper.
  • Stirring every 10 minutes during baking helps prevent burning and ensures even crispiness.
  • Store granola in an airtight container to maintain freshness for up to one month.
  • For a nut-free version, omit the almonds and replace with extra pumpkin seeds or sunflower seeds.
