1/2 tbsp mixed spices

1 tbsp ground cinnamon

Preheat the oven to Gas 3/ 160°C/325°F.

Mix the oil with the apple juice and honey in a large pan and simmer for a few minutes to combine.

In a separate bowl mix all of the dry ingredients together, except for the dried fruits.

Stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture.

Squeeze the wet mixture together with your hands, to form small clusters, before spreading out on to two large baking trays that have been lined with parchment paper.

Bake for 45 minutes, turning and breaking up the cereal every 10 minutes or so.

It is important to allow for the full baking time as a shorter time may result in the granola being too moist, therefore going off within a few days of storage.
