Barley, Quinoa, Seed and Nut Granola

by Josiah Meldrum July 02, 2016

This granola recipe was given to us by Canadian friends of friends. Despite the long list of ingredients (including naked barley flakes and puffed quinoa) it's easy to make. We turned it into a summer pudding by layering it with natural yoghurt and berries.

This recipe comes from Canada so uses cup measurements, but the exact weights don't matter too much it's about getting the proportions right. The granola will keep well in an airtight container.

Ingredients

6 cups naked barley flakes (about 500g)
1 cup puffed quinoa (about 180g)
1 cup pumpkin seeds (150g)
1 cup sunflower seeds (150g
1 cup sesame seeds (150g)
1 cup whole almonds (crushed after measuring) (120g)
1 cup hazelnuts (crushed after measuring) (120g)
1/2 cup oil (150ml)
1/2 cup maple syrup (150ml)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence

Method

Mix all the dry ingredients well.
In a separate bowl mix wet ingredients then combine with dry. Mix thoroughly.
Bake in the oven at 120C for about an hour, stirring every 15mins.
In the picture I’ve layered it up with natural yoghurt and berries to make a delicious summery pudding.

This recipe combines malted wheat and rye flour to create a rich sticky ginger cake, reminiscent of Jamaican Gingerbread or Yorkshire Parkin. Rye flour is usually associated with heavy dense bread, but this gingerbread is surprisingly light and delicate, while still being comforting.

Multigrain Gingerbread Cookies with Almonds

by Danka Jandric December 15, 2024

These gingerbread cookies are inspired by a Swedish recipe Danka has been making for years that involves rolling the dough into a log, chilling it and simply slicing it for a quick and low mess option for homemade ginger snaps. Danka started making them with our four grain muesli base for an increased plant diversity and higher fibre content, both of which are great for gut health.

Black Barley Salad with Brussels Sprouts, Pomegranate, Cashews, and Feta

by Danka Jandric December 15, 2024

This salad is great for a lighter addition to a Christmas smorgasbord, or as a way to use up leftover turkey (and sprouts) in the days after Christmas. Just shred the turkey and add into the salad at assembly stage. Also delicious in the lead up to Christmas with a bit of salmon, or marinated tofu.
