your choice of fresh berriesRecipe
Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C).
In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except the dried fruit and raisins.
Divide the mixture into thirds and spread each on a separate baking sheet. Place all the baking sheets in the oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until lightly golden, turning once. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for approximately 2 hours.
When the mixture has cooled, return to the bowl and toss with the dried fruit and the raisins.
In serving dishes, layer the granola with yogurt and fresh fruit. Store the remaining granola in an airtight container for up to 1 month. If making this much granola seems excessive, you can halve the recipe.
COOK'S TIP
If your supermarket doesn't stock buckwheat-most don't-look for it in a health food or bulk food store. Quinoa and amaranth are readily available in most grocery and health food stores.
