Great recipe; I did some adjustments as recommended by some other reviewers. I used 1/2 c canola oil, 1/2 honey, 1/2 cup maple syrup, 1/2 c agave. I don't like coconut so I left that out. I also added 4 TBS brown sugar, 2 tsp apple pie spice. It was great. thanks for the recipe.

This is a great recipe - my partner makes it all the time, he doesn't always use the same ingredients, subs one thing for another, but it always comes out fantastic!

One of the easiest and best granola recipes around!!! I love it! I just substituted Wheat germ for Wheat bran and used salted sunflowers as well as a tsp of salt and tsp of cinnamon. It turned out great.

This is a wonderful recipe! I love the fact that it can be changed to suit your individual tastes. I've made it twice now and each time I changed something and both times it was delicious. My only concern when making this was the calorie and fat count. However, when I realized that the information is based on 20 servings I was less concerned. I'm not sure what they consider a "serving", but we get way more than 20 servings. A little goes a very long way so we use it on yogurt, ice cream or just as a quick "sweet" fix.

There was too much oil in this, I will cut down the oil a lot next time. TOherwise very good. I added brown sugar into the dry mixture and chocolate chips at the end. Very good!

I used less oil, less honey, 6 c. oats, +cinnamon +salt +syrup +brown sugar, baked @ 350 for 40 min - still a bit too sweet for me - will tweak it again next time. Good though!

Expected granola goodness; what I got was granola greatness. Made a half batch adding a tsp of cinnamon and omitting fruit (not always in a fruit mood)... I intend to have this for breakfast, but the ice cream is begging to be covered in it - I shall do both! P.S. Bake with kitchen window ajar, neighborhood cats will swarm...

My dr. suggested that all people should occasionally have a wheat-free, dairy-free meal. So I leave out the wheat germ and add a few more oats and some flax seed meal, and eat it with rice milk...perfect! I aslo add raw pumpkin seeds, and use a small amount of pumpkin seed oil and/or walnut oil to replace some of the canola oil. Also use xylitol or sucralose as a sweetner, but with the natural sweetness of the rice milk the granola doesn't need much sweetner. It's the standard breaky in our house now!

This recipe was super easy and delicious to make! I used the suggestions from previous reviewers and only used 1/2 cup of oil because I wanted to cut down on fat and I don't like oily granola. I only had almonds on hand so I used two cups of that and instead of raisins I used crushed pineapple. Also I added the cranberries and pineapple to the oatmeal mixture prior to baking because I like my fruit to stick to the granola. It's excellent for topping off vanilla yogurt or if my sweet tooth is calling I add it to vanilla ice cream. Absolutely delicious!

This is a great granola. Currently I use 7 cups oats, 2 cups raisins/craisins, 3-4 cups assorted nuts/seeds, 1/3 cup oil, 1/2 cup honey, and 2 tsp cinnamon. This is considerably less sweet than the original but that's how I like it. Healthy walnut oil is a bit expensive but gives a nice flavor.

Very nice granola, does need a little salt to enhance the nuts in the granola, also,instead of sesame seeds I used pumpkin seedss. I also used a store brand oatmeal, I think that was a mistake, very small pieces, next time I would use Quaker Oatmeal.

I made a half recipe but included flax seed instead of sunflower seeds since I didn't have any on hand. I also only had half a cup of honey, but it was sweet enough. Next time I will add a small sprinkle of salt as suggested by another reviewer. I did not have problems with it being oily, but I may have used more dry ingredients than the recipe called for. I also cooked it longer than called for and let it cool inside the oven. Smells just like an oatmeal cookie so I had to add some chocolate chips after cooling but still a little warm to soften the chocolate.

I had to use two jelly roll pans for this recipe...and I think I even cut it down by half! Blame the wall oven and its size....but! no worries! I will definitely be making this again! I cut down the amount of honey thinking that it would be too sweet with the coconut but follow the recipe please! It will all work out in the end...and experiment with different dried fruits. I omitted the sesame seeds because of an allergy but the rest was just wonderful! Great on yogurt or oatmeal in the morning.

This is the PERFECT granola recipe!!! And it is SOOO easy to make!!! I have tried other granola recipes that were good, but this one is EXCELLENT and much easier to make. My husband is thrilled I found this recipe because now I'll stay stocked up on home-made granola like I've been saying I want to. I'm not too crazy about the sunflower seeds, so I'll leave those out next time. Like a previous reviewer suggested, I added an extra cup of oats, but I didn't have sesame seeds, so I left those out. I used extra virgin olive oil instead of canola, and it worked very nicely. You can also tightly press this mixture into a container and refrigerate it to make wonderful chewy granola bars. Anyone who likes granola MUST try this recipe!!!

So yummy! I changed the recipe: used multi-grain oats, didn't use walnuts (since I didn't have any), didn't use coconut (don't like it), flax instead of wheat germ (once again, its what I had), dried cherries instead of raisins (don't like it) and then I had to bake almost 40 min (I stirred the mix on both pans and switched the pans around every 10 min). I love it. Next time, I'll cut down on the honey-oil mix though as its a little too sticky for me (think I'll try 2 cups total of the mix).
