Ultimate Coconut Granola

I had a sudden craving for granola the other day when the muesli I was eating for breakfast seemed unappetisingly soft and soggy! Anyway, I set about experimenting to create my own and came up with this wonderful recipe that satisfied my desire. It uses coconut oil instead of sunflower oil for added flavour and I hear that it has many health benefits: https://www.organicfacts.net/health-benefits/oils/health-benefits-of-coconut-oil.html
