Pumpkin Granola

October 31, 2015 By JJ 3 Comments

Pumpkin Granola

J: can you please write a post about pumpkin granola for me?
R: granola, it’s good
J: yeah, need a bit more than that
R: …
J: …
R: I don’t really like granola
J: I’m not talking to you anymore.

Pumpkin Granola

The pumpkin obsession continues, this time in the form of granola — because while I’m perfectly fine with eating pie for breakfast some people may feel granola is more appropriate.

I’d call those people silly but to each their own.

Pumpkin Granola

At this point I should probably try to draw a tenuous link between this pumpkin granola and Halloween to pretend that I’m all organised and whatnot — and I did after all paint a plastic pumpkin white purely to use it in these photos — but to tell you the truth it’s been a flat-out couple of weeks and I don’t have the brain power for much more than an Instagram post or two at the moment.

Pumpkin Granola

So instead I’ll wish you a Happy Halloween, leave you with pretty pictures and a pretty damn good recipe, and call it a night.

If you need me I’ll be editing photos and laughing far too loudly at The Graham Norton Show and a rerun of Have You Been Paying Attention — it’s all sorts of crazy Friday night ’round here.

Pumpkin GranolaFragrant with pumpkin and spice, it’s like pie but crunchy (ok, so not really like pie — aside from the fact that both pumpkin pie and pumpkin granola are perfect breakfast food — but you know what I mean).

Makes approximately 6 cups granola

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 c rolled oats (200g)
  • 1 c pecans (125g)
  • 1 c almonds (150g)
  • ½ c pepitas (75g)
  • 1 c shredded coconut (70g)
  • ½ c raw buckwheat (95g)
  • 1/3 pumpkin puree (80ml)
  • 1/3 c coconut oil (80ml)
  • 1/3 c rice malt syrup or maple syrup (80ml)
  • 1 Tbsp tahini (15ml)
  • 2 tsp mixed spice
  • ½ tsp sea salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla paste

METHOD

Preheat oven to 160°C (320°F), line two trays with baking paper. Roughly chop pecans and almonds.

In a large bowl (no, larger than that, really) combine oats, nuts, seeds, coconut and buckwheat and mix well.

In a jug combine remaining ingredients — pumpkin puree through vanilla — and set into a bowl of hot water for a few minutes to warm through. Whisk to combine.

Pour pumpkin mixture over oat mixture and stir, stir, stir until everything is coated. Tip onto lined baking sheets and spread into an even layer.

Bake 10 mins, stir gently to move edges into centre and centre out to edges. Bake a further 15 mins or so, stirring every 5 minutes, until evenly golden. Remove from oven, press granola down with a spatula to compress into clusters and allow to cool completely on trays. Break up and store in an airtight container.

COOK’S NOTES

  • To test if granola is done place a bit on a small dish and pop into the freezer to speed cool — if it goes crispy it’s done, if not bake a bit longer.

    This looks just awesome! 🙂 My kid of 2,5 yrs old loves granola and I would love to make some from scratch rather than him eating all the sugary stuff I get from the store 🙂

That’s it. That’s the post.
Apparently today is National Strawberry Day, it’ Apparently today is National Strawberry Day, it’s overcast and raining in LA (so a plate of sunshine is absolutely necessary), and if you’ve been here for more than a hot second you know how I feel about toast.
🍞🍓🥒🌱
Toasted sourdough, goat chèvre (or vegan cream cheese), sliced strawberries, cucumber ribbons, fresh mint, olive oil, black pepper, just a pinch of salt. Go forth and feast.

I took this video on Jan 1. I even wrote a caption I took this video on Jan 1. I even wrote a caption and everything. And I intended to post it that day as a reflection moving into a new year. But instead, mom and I went out for pizza and wine, and then it was Jan 2, and so on and so on. 
🌀
So instead you’re getting it on Feb 1. A new day and another new month (but what is a new month or a new year, other than a societal convention really). 
☀️
Because, each day, each sunrise, we have the opportunity to start anew - no matter how big or little that start may be. A chance to take another step forward - no matter how many steps back you feel you’re fighting against. 
🌀
Whether this past year brought blinding joy or paralysing grief (and in whatever measure of balance or imbalance), I hope each new day sees the landscape of your life look one step closer to what you imagine it to be. And that when the waves roll in and change that landscape, you can roll with it and see the beauty and possibility on the other side.
🌊
If you’ve made it this far, congratulations, have a cookie 🍪 And I’ll leave you with the rolling waves and blue sky of a California beach in January. I truly hope this year sees us all grow stronger and move forward with each new day. Going backwards is simply not an option.

…
When the middle little insisted on buying quail eggs over Christmas, but due to allll the other food we never cooked them, I simply couldn’t let the little guys go to waste. 
🥚
Could I have made one dish? Of course. Did I instead prepare quail eggs four ways, bake mini loaves of brioche, make mini waffles, dig through the prop closet for the smallest dishes, and set up an entire table? Of course I did. 
💥
Swipe to the end for reference on the size of the eggs and loaf.

My go-to pizza topping combo 🍕 Made on that dou My go-to pizza topping combo 🍕 Made on that dough from a couple weeks ago and voiced by the middle little (who is about as different from her younger sister as you can get!) 💥.
🍕
Sometimes this combo gets prawns too 🍤. Most of the time I don’t bother mixing the ingredients in a bowl and just layer them on top. The cheese is a hard goat cheese (because I can’t do 🐄). The ‘spices’ 🌱 is Sicilian oregano. The measurements are random at best - a handful of this, a splash of that. 
🍕
If you have a fave veggie or seafood pizza combo I’d love to hear it. Because as Ms.S says, voila, yummy yummy pizza!
Flowers for your Friday, that is all.

Look at me, coming at’cha with a double whammy o Look at me, coming at’cha with a double whammy of my go-to Half-Spelt, Sourdough Discard Pizza Dough recipe 🍕 (the one I’ve been teasing for years), AND a new voiceover by little Ms Marmalade herself 👧🏼.
☀️ I mean, I’m not saying the sound on this video will brighten up your day by an infinite amount, but I’m not, not, saying that either ✨. 
—-
The full recipe with all the info is over on my site (⛓ in profile and all that jazz), along with a longer version of the video. Because a 5yo singing - SINGING - about rolling dough into balls is ah-mazing. 
—-
Ingredients, for those wondering:
* whole spelt flour
* white 00 pizza flour
* water
* sourdough starter discard
* active dry yeast
* kosher salt
* millet flour (for shaping)
⏲ All the times and weights are in that aforementioned post - plus opts to bake right away vs letting it all ferment for a day or two... There’s also a list of equipment I use, and my personal flour and pizza oven faves. Now go have a pizza party! 🍕🎉
Well hello there! ‘Tis the season and all means Well hello there! ‘Tis the season and all means it’s about time I (finally) shared this 🍗 🍇🍊 image from a test shoot collab well over a year ago 🙈. I actually made these Cornish Hens for Christmas last year too and they’ll be on the menu again this year. It’s a perfect holiday feast solution for a small group with only a few meat eaters, but also if you simply can’t be bothered to tackle a turkey!

There seems to be a common thread this year of people asking in stories if it’s ok to start decorating for 🎄 already - my answer, every time, is ‘the world is on fire, time has no meaning, go for your life’. Am I wrong? (I’m not, haha) I may even put up a tree here more than 3 days before (I do keep it up until Easter though, so who knows 😜). Are you getting festive already or do you have hard and fast rules about these things?
