Best granola ever! Made many batches already. Used different nuts and seeds each time. Tried using maple syrup and turned out great! Pressed the mixture in the baking pan made granola chunks.

Most delicious! I made a batch of it and before I knew it, it was all gone because everyone else thought it was just as good as I did. ...and it makes the house smell wonderful. So now for round 2, where I'll make 2 batches and hope it lasts a little longer... though that's not very likely :)

Making this right now, buddy!! Smells so good! Used 8 pkts of original organic oatmeal, which contains salt and sugar already. Omitted flax, sunflower seeds and pecans (didn't have 'em, so ain't gonna shop for 'em), replaced oil with apple sauce and added a touch more vanilla extract. Forgot to combine wet ingredients separately (I cook and read as I go, bad bad.) so sprinkled the half cup water over combined ingredients. Added half a tsp of cinnamon more. Will let you know how this goes... Last fifteen minute increment and flip. Turned oven off to let mix crisp up. 1 hour to munching time!

This is the best granola recipe I've ever tried. We love this. I've been making it for many weeks now. At first I thought it sounded like a lot of salt, but I think the amount written is perfect. When I take it out of the oven, I add lots of raisins. We have tried it with other fruit, but we like raisins best. Thanks for the great recipe!

Very good! I love that it has wheat germ and flax in the recipe. I added 1/4c. of dried cranberries to the mix. Easy and yummy. Thanks!

I make this recipe quite often and my family loves it. I put in what ever seeds and nuts I happen to have on hand and it has never failed me yet.

I've already made this recipe twice - loving it. I only had quick oats on hand and it's fine. No sunflower seeds on hand so just added more of the other nuts. One tsp of salt was plenty. Used a pyrex glass casserole dish and it was fine after baking for an hour (some other reviewers commented that an hour was too long). Not super crunchy but just enough "chew". I plan on making it for my dad for his birthday.

A scoop of this with vanilla yogurt and some fresh fruit is my favorite way to start the day. The only changes I make are substituting walnuts for the sunflower seeds, as others have suggested, and adding 1/2 cup of oat bran for some added fiber.

It turned out very tasty. Easy and quick to make. It can certainly be tailored to any taste, but it's a good base from which to start.

I liked the healthy option for granola, but did not like the fact that it didn't clump together well. Other than that, it was good.

This recipe is great and can be easily substituted, depending on what you have in your pantry. I used applesauce instead of oil and added extra raisins after the granola was toasted and cooled... DELICIOUS!!

I found one hour was to long to bake it. Next time I'll bake for 45min.

Great tasting easy granola! I too substituted bran for the wheat germ and flax and I mixed ALL my wet ingredients together before adding to the oats/nuts. I think it was evenly coated this way. I baked it for the full hour, and stirred it every twenty minutes and it came out nicely toasted. It doesn't really clump but I put it in yogurt with some berries and it's yummy!

It seems that most reviews that appear at this site are really ADAPTATIONS of recipes. I find very few reviews that reflect the recipes exactly as they are presented, so let me state that I made this granola with no adaptations or substitutions. Having said that, I think this granola tastes good, but it is soggy, and what disappointed me most is the fact that the granola doesn't hold together in clumps. It is very loose and is best eaten with a spoon. The taste is good, but I wish it were more like the store-bought granola that is so readily available.

Great granola recipe. My only changes: I don't use the nuts/seeds listed. I add 1 cup nuts (walnuts usually). After cooked, stir in about 1 cup dried fruit of choice. Perfect. Made an apple cinnamon granola (added chopped dried apples and extra cinnamon after cooking) and my husband loved it.

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!!!
