Add all the other ingredients, except for the bee pollen and hemp seeds, and stir thoroughly.

2. Spread the granola mix evenly on a large baking tray. Bake in the oven for 10–15 minutes, until golden brown, turning the mixture halfway through.

3. Remove the granola from the oven and sprinkle over the hemp seeds and bee pollen.

4. Leave the granola to cool then transfer to an airtight jar. Serve with natural live yogurt and, if you like, a few raspberries. The granola will keep for up to 3 weeks.
