To make the granola, whisk the egg whites, honey, orange zest, cinnamon or mixed spice and salt together in a large bowl. Add the oats, puffed rice and seeds and stir together, making sure everything is evenly coated.
Tip the mixture onto a large, non-stick baking tray and bake for 30 minutes. Add the raisins, give everything a good stir, then bake for a further 10 minutes.
Remove from the oven and leave to cool completely. When the granola is cool, scrunch it with your hands to break up any large pieces.
Meanwhile, combine the comp么te ingredients in a saucepan, bring to a simmer, then cook gently for 10 minutes until reduced and syrupy. Remove from the heat and leave to cool.
Serve the granola with the yoghurt and comp么te.
Recipe Tips
The granola will keep, in an airtight container, for two weeks.
You can swap the rice pops for cornflakes or bran flakes.
Raisins tend to be the cheapest dried fruit, but you can use a mixture. Try chopped dried apricots, figs or cranberries.
If you鈥檙e avoiding dairy, swap the yoghurt for a soya or coconut alternative.
