Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams whole wheat flour
- 100 grams rolled oats
- 75 grams granola
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 60 milliliters honey
- 200 milliliters skim milk
- 30 milliliters vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 50 grams chopped nuts (optional)
- 50 grams dried fruits like raisins or cranberries (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, rolled oats, granola, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir until well mixed.
In another bowl, whisk together the honey, skim milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and the egg until fully incorporated.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir to form a smooth batter. Be careful not to overmix.
If using, gently fold in the optional chopped nuts and dried fruits into the batter for added texture and flavor.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Once baked, let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then remove it from the pan and cool on a wire rack completely before slicing.
Serve the granola bread as is or lightly toasted, perfect for breakfast or a tasty snack.
