Ingredients

• 400 grams All-purpose flour
• 200 grams Granola
• 240 ml Warm water
• 7 grams Active dry yeast
• 50 grams Honey
• 5 grams Salt
• 30 ml Olive oil
• 1 large Egg
• 1 tablespoon Butter (for greasing)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine warm water and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let sit for about 5 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy.

Step 2

Add honey and olive oil to the yeast mixture and stir until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour and salt.

Step 4

Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring with a wooden spoon until a dough begins to form.

Step 5

Add the beaten egg to the dough and continue mixing until the egg is fully incorporated.

Step 6

Fold in the granola, mixing well to ensure it's evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.

Step 8

Place the kneaded dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and allow it to rise in a warm place for about 1-1.5 hours, or until it doubles in size.

Step 9

Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release any air bubbles and transfer it to a greased 9-inch loaf pan.

Step 10

Cover the loaf pan with a damp cloth and let the dough rise again for about 30 minutes.

Step 11

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

Step 12

Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the loaf is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.

Step 13

Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 14

Slice and serve the granola bread on its own, with butter, or your favorite spread.
