Ingredients
For the Granola:
2 cups rolled oats
¼ cup honey
¼ cup toasted buckwheat
¼ cup toasted hazelnuts
¼ cup chopped walnuts
¼ cup sunflower seeds
1 tsp mixed spice (a blend of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves works well)
To Assemble:
1 cup Greek yoghurt
4 Tbsp mānuka honey MGO 400+
1 fresh fig, quartered
Instructions
1. Prepare the Granola:
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, honey, toasted buckwheat, toasted hazelnuts, chopped walnuts, sunflower seeds, and mixed spice. Mix well to ensure that all ingredients are evenly coated with honey.
Spread the mixture in a single layer on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the granola is golden brown and crispy. Stir occasionally to ensure even baking.
Remove from the oven and let it cool completely. The granola will continue to crisp up as it cools.
2. Assemble the Granola Cups:
Spoon a layer of Greek yoghurt into each cup or bowl.
Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of mānuka MGO 400+ honey over the yogurt.
Add a generous layer of the cooled granola on top of the yoghurt and honey.
Finish with fresh fig quarters for a burst of natural sweetness and a touch of elegance.
