A great make-ahead recipe! Be sure to remove from the cookie sheets within 20 minutes after baking to prevent sticking. —Lori Stevens, Riverton, Utah

I added craisins and raisins after baking. Substituted pancake syrup for real maple, added 1/2 c. wheat bran and 1/3 c. ground flaxseed.

Add your dried fruit after the granola has baked & cooled off.

The only thing I changed was I added dried cranberries. I wouldn't do that again as they got really hard after baking it. Other than that, it was delish!

This is fantastic! Wonderfully delicious and so easy to make. (My 2 year old helped and enjoyed tasting each ingredient as it was stirred in.) The only thing I changed was adding craisins for color and a little fruit. I will be making this regularly rather than buying expensive granola at the store!
