Your Very Own As You Like It Master Granola Recipe

I found it! A granola recipe that I could adapt into a Master and could be made totally with your choice of ingredients! (The original came from bestfoodblogever.com.) My new version is such a yummy recipe because you put into it the things you love. Make it different each time or stand by your very favorites!

In a large bowl place dry ingredients:
2 C. Whole Rolled Cereal ~ Oats, Wheat, etc.
4 C. Total Additions like:
1 1/2 C. Nuts of Choice
1 C. Unsweetened Coconut
1/2 C. Seeds ~ Sesame, Flax, Sunflower, etc.
1 C. Dried Fruit ~ Raisins, Cranberries, Cut Up Apricots, etc. Fruit is added halfway into baking time.

In a smaller bowl place wet ingredients:
2/3 C. Honey, or Maple Syrup, Brown Rice Syrup, Agave, or any combination of your choice
1/4 C. Nut Butter ~ Peanut, Almond, etc.
1 1/2 t. Vanilla, or Part Vanilla and Part Maple or Almond etc.
Dash of Salt, if desired and salted nuts were not used.

Mix dry ingredients in a mixing bowl, except fruit. Stir wet ingredients well. Pour syrup mixture over dry ingredients and stir till thoroughly coated.Spread onto a greased cookie sheet and bake at 300 degrees for 20 minutes, stirring after 10 minutes.Add fruit if using, to cookie sheet and return to oven for another 20 min. stirring after 10 min.. Cool to room temp and store in an airtight container. Makes about 7 Cups.
Serve with your favorite milk. Mine's Coconut!
