Main

    Preheat oven to 180C. Warm maple syrup and rice syrup in a saucepan over low heat, add oil, pour over oat mixture and stir to coat. Spread on oven trays lined with baking paper and bake, stirring occasionally, until crisp and golden (15-20 minutes). Cool on trays. Granola will keep in an airtight container for 2 weeks.

Notes

Note Spelt flakes, triticale and rye flakes are all available from select health-food shops. If they're unavailable, substitute extra rolled oats. Jersey milk has a high fat content. It's available from select farmers' markets and delicatessens.
