Homemade granola is a simpler and healthier option compared to store bought brands. Mix and match your ingredients to switch it up and you'll never get bored! My favourite? Top with fresh blueberries and yoghurt.

Nut butters: You can really replace the cashew butter to whatever you have on hand. Typically, I alternate between peanut butter and cashew butter but it's all to do with your preference of taste.
Sweeteners: Honey also works well here if you prefer a sweeter granola compared to maple syrup.
Dried Fruits & Other Toppings: Substitute dried cranberries for raisins or whatever your heart desires. Just add these in after baking and cooling.
Nuts: Who says you only need two kinds? Or even cashews and almonds? Mix it up and give some pecans or walnuts a go.

Pour liquid over dry ingredients and mix. Don't worry if it looks too dry at first, keep stirring to coat evenly.

6

Tip granola mixture onto parchment lined baking tray. I prefer to lightly press my granola down using a fondant smoother in order to get some big granola clusters but it's entirely preference.

Bake for 20 minutes. Flip tray around in oven and bake for an additional 20 minutes until light golden brown. Remove from oven and let granola cool before removing.

This is such a versatile granola. Add chocolate chips, freeze dried strawberries, dried fruit. Really, the list is endless! I always double the recipe and keep half to eat now and half in the freezer for later.

I’ll preface this by saying I’m not a chef — just someone who loves to cook and needed a place to gather and share the recipes that have shaped my kitchen.

 

From the classics that are always on rotation to the discoveries I’ve stumbled upon along the way, you’ll find them here. Each recipe is shared in its original form, with Anthology’s Notes added at the end to reflect the tweaks and touches that suit our table.

 

Over the years I’ve tried to make many recipes my own, so you’ll also see those variations woven in.

 

Basically: cook, taste, adjust, and repeat.
