Introduction

This is a delicious basic granola which can be tweaked as desired with different dried fruits, nuts and flavorings. Try maple syrup instead of honey or Almond extract instead of the vanilla. Dried cherries or cranberries are also delicious. This is a delicious basic granola which can be tweaked as desired with different dried fruits, nuts and flavorings.

Ingredients

    3 cup Quaker Oats Old-Fashioned Rolled Oats
    .5 tsp Cinnamon, ground
    .25 tsp Salt
    .25 cup Honey
    .25 cup Sunflower Oil
    1 tsp Vanilla Extract
    .5 cup (not packed) Raisins
    .5 cup, slivered Almonds
    1/4 cup Shredded Coconut Unsweetened

Directions

Preheat oven to 300F and place rack in the middle of the oven. Measure all ingredients into a large bowl and set aside. Place honey, oil and vanilla into a small bowl and mix to combine (you may need to heat the honey slightly). Pour over the oat mixture and mix well. Spread mixture in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet (I use a 9 x 13" cake pan). Bake, stirring every 15 minutes until the granola light golden brown. Watch carefully after 30 minutes as it will brown quickly. Once browned to your liking place on a wire rack and cool to room temperature. It will harden as it cools. Store Granola in an airtight container.
