Very good granola! One suggestion- put it in two 9x13 pans to bake it because one pan doesn't allow much room for stirring, and it browns more evenly when it's in a thinner layer.

This recipe is great and it is easy to change a few things. My changes: I use 6 cups of oats instead of 4 (makes a bigger batch and more lowfat). I also usually use walnuts instead of almonds and I add about 1/2 cup almond meal. I also mix together the canola oil, water, cinnamon, brown sugar, and vanilla and cook it on the stove until it comes to a boil. Makes the granola less gritty with the brown sugar and cinnamon dissolved. I also add a teaspoon of almond extract to the above mixture and it is delicious and I use just a squeeze of honey or even skip it. I like to add dried cranberries, raisins, and dried cherries when the granola is toasted and cooled. Excellent and a lot healthier than the granola you buy at the store...and a lot cheaper!!!

great granola recipe. I omitted the nuts because my kids are allergic and it still came out great!

Really liked it. Tried to make it just as the recipe says, except I used virgin coconut oil in place of the canola oil. Less cooking time next time, but really good.

Great recipe for getting your protein. I don't add the brown sugar and use 1/2 cup honey total, use wheat bran instead of germ and no-sugar-added orange juice instead of water.

This is a delicious and versatile granola. The base of honey and brown sugar gives it a rich flavor. Any nuts and seeds you like can be substituted for those in the recipe, and it's great with dried fruit mixed in. I also used whole flax seeds because my natural food store doesn't carry the meal. The cook time was perfect for my oven.

This is a wonderful skeleton recipe to play around with. I added whatever grains, seeds, nuts and dried fruits we had - fantastic!

Too much salt, not much other flavoring. After I baked it, I mixed more honey, vanilla and cinnamon and remixed and baked.

Omitted brown sugar; this is unbelievable. I couldn't even wait for it to cool! Great ideas on mixing in dried fruits to mix it up. I will be having this EVERY morning!

Awesome recipe. This was the first granola I ever made and it turned out great. The only thing was the day after I made it, it got chewy, so I put it in the oven again for 20 min and it crisped right back up.

Yum! This granola rocks! I took the suggestion of another user and substituted the canola oil for unsweetened apple sauce because I had it on hand and it was one less item that I needed to purchase from the grocery store. It's fabulous. I'll probably be having this for breakfast every morning for a long time to come!

Wonderful, versatile recipe! I omitted the brown sugar and used 1/3 cup real maple syrup instead of honey; decreased the oil to 1/4 cup; and I used slivered instead of sliced almonds for more texture. Oh, I might have tossed some oat bran in there too. Didn't miss the sugar at all, and I like things sweet. Mine only took maybe 40-45 minutes to bake. When cool, I added some dried blueberries - Delicious, chunky, perfectly flavored granola!!

very good! easy! i also put all-bran and applesauce and it worked super. will make again.

This granola is so good that I can't stop eating it!! I used All-Bran cereal instead of the wheat germ and flax meal, Splenda baking mix instead of the brown sugar, and sugar-free maple syrup for the honey. I used a combination of almond/vanilla extract and a combo of walnuts and peanuts. SO GOOD!!!

Really delicious!

Yummy! Good base, easy to modify. Thanks!
