It's very easy to make and so customizeable! The recipe I used called for pecans, which we don't like so we left them out, and sunflower kernals which I put in, but will probably leave out next time.
This is the recipe I tried.
Honey Nut Granola
4c. Rolled Oats
1c. Sliced Almonds
1c. Chopped Pecans
1c. Raw Sunflower Seeds
1/3c. Canola Oil
1/2c. Honey
1 tsp Vanilla
1 tbsp Cinnamon
Mix together nuts and oats in a large bowl.
Mix wet ingredients, then pour over oats. Stir to evenly coat.
Spread granola on two cookie sheets. Bake in a preheated 300 degree oven for 10 minutes, stir then bake 10 minutes more or until golden.
It smells wonderful while baking and despite the cinnamon in it, it really isn't noticeable at all. We ate it on yogurt (vanilla and fruit flavored) and with milk and love it. This will definitely be our go to granola from now on. I will probably try to use 2 c almonds to replace the pecans and an extra cup of oats to replace the sunflower seeds next time.
Jonah and I made this recipe this morning! We made the changes you suggested with an extra cup of oats instead of sunflower seeds and more almonds instead of pecans - it turned out great! I think it's probably cheaper that way too, b/c we always have oatmeal on hand anyway. We also added raisins - yummy!
