This granola tastes good, but this recipe is better. Use 1 1/2 cups oats, 4 tbs brown sugar, 4 tbs pure maple syrup (not pancake syrup) and 2 tbs veggie oil. Put the oats in a large bowl, set aside. Mix all remaining ingredients in small bowl until well combined. Pour over oats. Spread in single layer on sprayed cookie sheet. Bake until golden brown, stirring every 10 minutes, about 25 minutes. Feel free to double or triple this recipe, as the wet ingredient ratio is always 4tbs 4tbs 2tbs. Add prailined nuts, dry fruit, or whatever you like.

I liked it. Thought the granola part tasted a litlle flavorless. I didnt add any seeds or anything since I hate all that stuff. I did add some homemade pecan prailines which was great. Im making it right now for the second time with maple syrup instead of honey for a little flavor. Will be making this again.
