Ingredients

    2 T olive oil
    1 C brown sugar, packed
    1/4 C water
    2 t cinnamon
    6 C old fashioned oats
    1 C unsalted sunflower seeds

Tips

Remove the cooked brown sugar mixture from the pan as soon it is done cooking. Use a heat proof spatula. If the mixture cools, it will be nearly impossible to add it to the oats mixture.


Directions

Melt butter, brown sugar and water together in a pan over medium heat. Stir well, and allow mixture to simmer for 2-3 minutes.

In a bowl, mix together cinnamon, seeds, and oats and add to the brown sugar mix.

Remove from the heat and stir until all oats are well coated. Place granola on one 18" x 13" cookie sheet (with edges), and bake for 5 minutes at 375.

Remove from the oven. Divide granola between 2 cookie sheets and stir/flip granola. Bake first batch for another 5 minutes until granola is lightly browned. Remove batch one from the oven. Bake the second batch for 5 minutes until golden brown. Remove batch two from the oven.

Allow granola to cool on the cookie sheets.

Cool completely. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
