Great granola! I only made minor modifications. We love cinnamon, so I upped it to 1-1/2t. Instead of only raisins, I used a mix of raisins, dried cherries and dried cranberries. My only recommendation is to add the dried fruit in the last 5 minutes of baking. This softens the fruit and gives the granola more flavor. Thanks for the great recipe!

I added golden raisins and cranberries instead of regular raisins... this is wonderful! The granola wasn't even completely cooled before I snacked on it and snapped a quick photo! Quick, easy, and delicious...a must-try if you enjoy granola!! No need to buy granola again!

I used to make a microwave granola, but this is so much better, just as fast, and easier. It needs more cinnamon...2 teaspoons was good. I added 1/2 cup sunflower seeds (roasted and salted), 1/3 cup wheat germ, and 1/4 cup sesame seeds. I skipped the raisins, but cranberries and white chocolate sound excellent. Baked in a roasting pan and stirred every 5 minutes. That was probably overkill, but I wanted to make sure it didn't burn. Perfect by itself, with yogurt, or my personal favorite...on top of Cheerios.

Great granola! I did not necessarily "change" the recipe except added 1/2 C less of the oats. I just added extras: 1/3 C each of raisins, golden raisins, and dried cranberries, Wheat Germ, sliced almonds, sunflower seeds and white chocolate chips. Just trying to use up some stuff.

I made this today to use up my excess supply of oatmeal. This was my first attempt at making granola and it went pretty well. I didn't add the coconut because the rest of the family aren't big fans and I used a cup of dried mixed berries in place of the raisins. Turned out well for my first try. Would like to attempt something harder next time.

Yummy! Granola made by me - no way! Made three changes: cooked 26 minutes so it was super crunchy, added sunflower seeds and roasted chopped almonds, and used maple syrup instead of brown sugar, which meant I didn't have to boil the liquid mixture and saved time. Easy to make and delicious, just ate a bowl with vanilla soymilk!

This is my 1st review and actually my first successful recipe attempt. I LOVED it, can't wait to make more. Easy too. I used virgin coconut oil in place of the veg. oil just cause I had it. I also happen to have a bunch of dried apples that I never know what to do with. So I cut up the dried apples and some dried apricots that I had and also some flax seed and almonds just cause I had it and I felt like it added to the nutritional value. I Love this site!

Excellent- loved this recipe. It came out perfectly done. I substituted 1/2 cup of slivered almonds and some dried cranberries instead of the coconut (my fiance doesn't like it)- and it was better than store bought! Just sweet enough for breakfast.

This was also my first time making granola and it turned out delicious. I made half the batch with coconut and half without. I also used maple syrup as one of the other reviewers did. I added half a cup of oat bran just for some more nutrients. It has so much flavor and is delicious in yogurt.

This granola is great! This is the fifth time I've made it...and what I've done with it is add a little bit of sea salt and some walnuts or hazelnuts to it. I then break it up and store it in baggies and portion it out onto my yogurt in the morning.

This is fantastic! My son has nut allergies and it is difficult to find a granola recipe without them. I was out of coconut so I left that out but I added some flax seeds, seseme seeds and sunflower seeds which were a yummy addition. I have made this twice. The second time I doubled it and used real maple syrup instead of brown sugar. Because it is already in liquid form I could skip the step of heating it on the stovetop and mixed the maple syrup, honey and oil directly into the dry ingredients. I cooked it a bit longer than the recipe calls for - closer to 30 minutes, but I watched it closely. It has a wonderful toasted flavor! My kids like this better than store-bought cereal and we have gone through a double batch in about a week because we also put it on yogurt and snack on it straight.

Really tasty. Probably one of the better granola recipes I've tried. I added a little wheat germ and it still tasted great.

Very Good! The only change I made was adding more cinnamon. Next time I will be sure to only cook for 15 min not the full 20 b/c it was on the verge of burning after 20 min.

I looked everywhere for a gluten/wheat free granola and found this - it was the best! I did double the amount of honey for a less crumbly, more crunchy texture and also added sunflower seeds and nuts. Great recipe!
