NUT-AND-SEED GRANOLA
We left the oats out of this low-carb, low-sugar granola. Our taste testers were split on the level of toastiness: Some liked the granola golden brown, while others liked a deeper, more robust version. Just follow the recipe's visual cues (and your nose) for your preferred doneness.

Steps:
- Position an oven rack at the bottom of the oven, and preheat to 325 degrees F.
- Whisk the maple syrup and oil together in a large bowl. Add the almonds, pecans, coconut, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, flaxseed and salt, and toss to coat.
- Spread the mixture out on a baking sheet, and bake for 20 minutes. Remove it from the oven, and scrape and toss the mixture around. Continue to bake until golden and still slightly sticky, 10 to 12 minutes more. Or, for a deeper, toasted version, bake until deeply golden (you may start to smell the toasted nuts), 13 to 15 minutes more. Let cool. (The granola can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.)

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan gas 4. Line a large baking sheet with baking parchment to prevent the granola from sticking. Put all of the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Whisk together the almond extract, vegetable oil and maple syrup in a jug, then pour into the bowl with the dry ingredients.
- Mix together well, making sure that all the dry ingredients are well coated and that there are no dry bits. Tip the mixture onto the lined baking sheet and spread out in an even layer. Cook for about 25-30 mins until golden. You will need to give the mixture a few turns every 8-10 mins to make sure it dries out evenly and doesn't clump together too much. Keep an eye on it as nuts can burn easily.
- Remove from the oven and leave to cool completely on the tray. Break up any large clumps of granola with a wooden spoon. Will keep for up to one month in an airtight container. Serve with milk or yogurt, and fresh seasonal fruit, if you like.

Tips:
- Use a variety of nuts and seeds: This will give your granola a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include almonds, walnuts, pecans, cashews, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and chia seeds.
- Choose nuts and seeds that are unsalted and unroasted. This will help you control the flavor of your granola and prevent it from becoming too salty or oily.
- Toast your nuts and seeds before using them in granola. This will bring out their flavor and make them more crunchy.
- Use a good quality honey or maple syrup. This will help your granola taste its best. Avoid using artificial sweeteners, as they can leave a bitter aftertaste.
- Add spices and extracts to your granola for extra flavor. Some good options include cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, vanilla extract, and almond extract.
- Bake your granola at a low temperature for a longer period of time. This will help it to crisp up without burning.
- Let your granola cool completely before storing it in an airtight container. This will help it to stay fresh and crispy.
