This easy granola recipe made with Black Honey is a hearty granola you can change up as you prefer. If you don’t have hazelnuts and walnuts, try pistachios or almonds. Don’t like dried cranberries? Try raisins, dried apricots, or dried apples. It makes about 1.2kg of granola, including the cup of cornflakes stirred through at the end to stretch it out a bit. Prepare it on the road or make a batch at home before your trip to take with you for a delicious breakfast (or snack) option.
