Homemade Granola

method

  1. Mix the brown sugar, honey & vegetable oil in a large bowl until they blend together
  2. Add the oats, chopped nuts, salt & cinnamon powder to the liquid mix & toss them all together.
  3. Spread the mixture evenly in a cookie sheet & bake it in the oven at 325 degrees for 25 minutes.
  4. At every 10 minute interval take the cookie sheet out of the oven & flip the granola using a spatula.

    Dry fruits & nuts of any choice can be added. Exclude fruits & nuts from this recipe if you are planning to have the granola as a topping for your yogurt.


  5. The granola will still be soft after 25 minutes, but will turn crispy when cooled. Finally, mix in the dry fruits & store it in an air tight container. It will be fresh for 1 week when left outside & for a month when stored in a freezer.
