Ingredients
  

  • 4 tbsp milk of your choice
  • 2 medium free-range eggs
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 2 tsp cacao powder sieved
  • pinch of salt
  • coconut oil for greasing
  • 4 thick slices of bread we like a good sourdough
  • Granola butter makes 450g
  • 300 g almonds
  • 100 g rolled oats
  • 4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1 tbsp coconut sugar optional
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp instant espresso powder optional
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 5 tbsp raisins

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your waffle iron.
  • In a bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, maple syrup and cacao, along with the salt.
  • Lightly brush the waffle iron with coconut oil to grease.
  • Dip the bread slices into the milk mixture, one slice at a time, so each piece is well coated. Place the dipped bread in the waffle iron (you may have to work in batches) and cook for 3 minutes until golden and crisp. Cut into triangles and serve with the Granola Butter (for dunking) and fresh berries.
  • For The Granola Butter
  • Preheat the oven to 160°C (325°F/Gas 3).
  • Place the almonds and oats on a baking sheet and roast for 15–18 minutes, or until golden and fragrant. Ensuring they are well-roasted will give you a more deeply flavoured nut butter and will also aid the blending process. Check if they are ready by breaking an almond in half: it should look lightly browned in the middle.
  • Transfer the almonds and oats to a high-speed food processor, reserving a handful for later, and blend for 10–15 minutes. Be patient: first it will turn into a fine flour, then it will become a big lump, and finally it will turn into a thick nut butter. You’ll need to stop and scrape down the sides every now and again, and, depending on the strength of the food processor, it might also need a rest so it doesn’t overheat.
  • Add the remaining ingredients and mix again for just a minute: this will add flavour and loosen up the butter into a runnier consistency, while providing crunch and texture from the reserved nuts and raisins. Pour into a clean jar and seal with a lid. This will keep at room temperature for up to a few weeks.
