You will need a large baking sheet.

2. Tip the oats into a large bowl, add the spices and salt and mix well.
Now add all the nuts and seeds, and mix well again.
3. In a measuring jug, combine the oil and maple syrup, then pour the mixture into the oats, nuts and seeds and, with a fork, mix to combine. Tip onto the prepared baking sheet, and move it around so that it covers the tray evenly.
4. Put in the oven to toast gently for 15 minutes and then, with spoons or spatulas, turn it to help toast the underside as well. Put back in the oven for another 10 minutes, and then sit the tray on a wire rack until the granolas cold.
5. Mix in the dried fruit and coconut
