A very tasty, simple granola variation. It's fairly straightforward - toasted oats with some nuts and a sweetener. She brings it up a notch with a couple of things - unsweetened coconut and currants - and sweetens it with maple syrup. Orange zest is the final tweak.

Be careful with the cooking time though - I let this one go until it was as brown as I thought it should be, then it cooked a little more on the tray when I took it out, and it turned out I'd overdone it - the currants were fossilized and the coconut was a bit burnt!

Update: I did this again and cooked it until it was nicely tanned but not dark brown. I put the currants in halfway through and they were better, but still a bit dried out. I'm going to take onepotkitchen's advice and put them in right at the end next time. I also did them with almonds and liked that very much.
