Add 350 grams of rolled oats to a large mixing bowl.

Add 200 grams of roughly chopped mixed nuts to the bowl.

Add 1/2 cup of raisins to the mixture.

Add 3 teaspoons of cinnamon to the bowl.

Pour in 150 ml of melted coconut oil into the mixture.

Add 100 ml of maple syrup and some brown sugar to the bowl.

Use your hands to mix and clump everything together to form clusters.

If using dried apple slices, add them to the mixture now. If using fresh apples, thinly slice one or two apples, press out excess moisture with a kitchen towel, and add them to the mixture.

Spread the granola mix onto a baking tray lined with baking parchment, ensuring it's evenly spread for best heat distribution.

Bake in the oven for 25 to 35 minutes.

If using dried apples, sprinkle them into the granola after baking.

Transfer the granola to an airtight container for storage.
