Get prepared recipe: Coconut granola will get you ready for your tennis match

A delicious muesli is always a treat and the perfect tennis food before a training session or match. Crunchy, with yogurt or milk and fresh fruit, it's sure to please everyone. Even if you're often on the go, muesli is easy to take with you – even to a tournament. We have a delicious coconut granola recipe that makes it quick and easy to prepare your own muesli. That way, you know exactly what's in it and avoid those sugary supermarket treats. Have fun preparing it, even more fun eating it, and best of luck on the court!

Ingredients for approximately 1200 grams of muesli

70g sesame seeds
70g pumpkin seeds
70g sunflower seeds
200g of tender rolled oats
200g rolled oats
150g hazelnuts (roasted and peeled)
100g coconut chips
5g cinnamon
110 g agave syrup
60g maple syrup
2 grams of salt
110g olive oil
2 grams of vanilla

preparation

Cover pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds and sesame seeds with water in a bowl, stir, and let stand.
Mix rolled oats, hazelnuts, coconut and cinnamon in a large bowl.
Heat agave syrup, maple syrup, and salt in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir until small bubbles form, then remove from the heat and add olive oil and vanilla, stirring again.
Place the grain mixture in a sieve, rinse it, and let it drain well. Add it to the oat mixture, then add the olive oil mixture and stir everything well.
Place the mixture onto two baking sheets lined with parchment paper and bake in a preheated oven at 150°C (top and bottom heat) for approximately 1 hour. Stir every 20 minutes and swap the baking sheets if necessary.

Tips

This goes well with fruit, milk, yogurt, or coconut milk (or a mixture of both), and dried fruit such as figs, dates, cranberries, etc., if desired. Of course, you can also omit the coconut or use other nuts – there are no culinary limits to your creativity and taste! Simply change it up every now and then to keep it interesting and give it a slightly different flavor each time.

The granola will keep for several weeks. It's important that it's stored in an airtight container.
