Whisk egg white, maple syrup, oil and vanilla in a jug until well combined. Add to oat mixture. Mix well, then use your hands to press mixture into small clusters.
Step 3
Bake in preheated 170 °C oven (fan-forced) for about 30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven. Cool in pan, then transfer to an airtight container.

Tips
- Granola will keep for up to 1 month in an airtight container in the pantry.
- To get a headstart with berry granola cups, make raspberry mixture the night before and keep, covered, in fridge. Layer in glasses with granola and yoghurt just before serving.
- Granola can also be served simply with milk and/or yoghurt and fresh fruit of your choice
- Hazelnuts and sultanas can be replaced with different nuts and dried fruit. Try pecans with dried apricots or macadamias with dried figs.
