Breakfast Granola Recipe and Video Tour

Earlier this year we had a very special guest here at Seavista. Emma is a blogger with a passion for good food, fitness, travel and mindfulness, her healthy lifestyle and values are certainly shared amongst our Seavista team and we were so delighted to invite Emma for her weekend stay in The Loft. Emma shares daily recipes through her Instagram feed titled Live Life Honestly so we thought we’d do the same;

As our guests and local visitors will know, we consider our Seavista Breakfast to be the key ingredient to kick start your day, we were thrilled to have Emma, an avid foodie try one of our staple favourites the breakfast granola bowl and have included the recipe below so you can experience a little bit of our energising brekkie at home!

Ingredients:

1 cup pecans, and 1/2cup almonds

2 cups jumbo organic oats

1 cup pumpkin seeds

1/2 cup sunflower seeds

3 tablespoons chia seeds

4 tablespoons coconut oil

1 table spoon cinnamon

4 tablespoons maple syrup

Method:

Pre-heat fan oven to 180, in a food processor whizz up the pecans and almonds into manageable chunks, the texture and consistency of the nuts is really up to your chunky preference.

Mix in the jumbo oats, pumpkin, sunflower and chia seeds.

Melt the coconut oil with the cinnamon and maple syrup and mix into the dry ingredients – spread the mixture onto a baking dish and bake for 15 mins. Give the ingredients a good mix to ensure an even browning throughout, pop back in for another 15 mins, keep an eye on your mixture during those last 15 minutes to avoid burning.

Take out when nicely golden – leave to cool then stir in sultanas and goji berries.

Serve with homemade berry compote, greek yoghurt, a swirl of honey, we like to add a sprinkle of bee pollen – oh and edible flowers!

If you’re thinking about a visit to our Loft for a foodie escape, Emma created a short video tour of her trip to Cornwall, click here and have a watch, she has documented her time with Seavista and the local area beautifully and we are so pleased to be sharing with our followers and potential new guests!
