Ingredients

    1 quart Old Fashioned Oats (organic preferred)
    3 cups Rice Krispies
    4 oz. of Walnuts (large chunks)
    1/2 cup brown sugar
    1/2 cup oil
    1/2 cup honey
    2 tsp cinnamon
    1/2 tsp salt
    1 cup raisins
    15-20 small dried apricot halves

Directions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees
Mix Oats, Rice Krispies, walnuts, cinnamon, and salt together in a large bowl. Caution, do not add the dried fruit until granola is baked!
In a 1 quart pyrex pitcher, add oil, honey and brown sugar and microwave for about 2 minutes, until hot and bubbly. Mix to dissolve sugar and then slowly pour over the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly.
Pour out onto cookie sheets ( the kind with sides). Using a silpat is best, but not absolutely necessary.
Place in oven and stir in sides of pan and redistribute, as the mixture starts to brown, about every 3-4 minutes. It is done when golden but be careful not to over cook as it will ruin the taste. This should take about 10-20 minutes, depending on the kind of pan and your oven.
Remove from oven, press down with a large spoon and let thoroughly cool, BEFORE stirring. When cool, it will be congealed in large sheet like pieces. Break it up, leaving larger chunks, if you like it chunky. If not, break it up into small pieces. Add the dried fruit (cut the apricot halves into smaller pieces.
