Serve this delicious mix for breakfast with milk, or sprinkle it over yogurt. You can add chopped walnuts or pecans, but it will increase the calorie count. —Kelly Kirby, Westville, Nova Scotia

Love this stuff! My husband is on a low fat diet and this fit the bill. It's delicious! I'm working on reducing the sugar and using dried tart cherries, apricots and blueberries.

Have made a version of this for years - thanks for sharing your version Kelly. I was turned off breakfast as a baby boomer growing up in the 50's, thanks to all the corn based boxed cereals. I very occasionally buy rice krispies, shreddies and the like for use in cookies and squares, but not for breakfast. This is a recipe that can adapt easily to personal preferences - a real keeper!

I used Splenda brown sugar mix for this recipe. It's got half the sugar but all the sweet flavour. I will be doubling up this recipe next time.

In fact I make this cereal about every two weeks. I use 3/4 cup brown sugar instead of the 1 1/2 c and its just fine. I also add 1 c of sliced almonds and 1 c coconut as well as 1 c of mixed dried cherries instead of the apricots. I also add cinnamon and nutmeg both and when its done cooking I sprinkle a few mini coc chips on top and wait till its cooled and place in storage container. My hubby and I eat this every morn for breakfast. It certainly cut the cereal budget as it is cheaper and far healthier to eat. I buy the oats at Sams club and the dried fruit too.

I'm with UPmomof3... No more buying granola for me! I was really impressed at the ease of this recipe & delicious results- easy to substitute ingredients to your family's liking! I made this this not even 2 days ago and it's almost gone!

This was very good! I did up the amounts of the maple and vanilla extract. My huband dug right in and said it was fantastic. No more buying granola for us!

When I saw the sugar content of this granola, I decided to experiment with the recipe and reduce the brown sugar to 1/2 cup (I used 2 Tbsp and a tsp of water). Unfortunately, the result was that the granola cooked more quickly and burnt by the time it had been in the oven for 20 minutes. The dried cranberries were nearly black. The potential of this recipe is wonderful, however, (the unburnt granola is delicious) and definitely worth a try. Just keep in mind that if you reduce the sugar, reduce the cooking time as well!
