Crunchy Granola 6 cups rolled oats -- (not quick-cooking or instant) 2 cups mixed nuts -- and seeds: sunflower seedssesame seeds, chopped walnuts, pecans, almonds or cashews 1 cup coconut flakes -- unsweetened (optional) 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon -- or to taste 1 Dash salt 1/2 cup honey -- or maple syrup, to taste (1/2 to 1) 1 cup raisins -- or chopped dried fruit (optional) Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, combine oats, nuts and seeds, coconut, cinnamon, salt and sweetener. Place on a sheet pan and put in oven. Bake for 30 minutes or a little longer, stirring occasionally. Mixture should brown evenly; the browner it gets without burning, the crunchier the granola will be. Remove pan from oven and add raisins or dried fruit. Cool on a rack, stirring once in a while until granola reaches room temperature. Transfer to a sealed container and store in refrigerator; it will keep indefinitely.

And of course, any nut or seed you can think of: I favor a combination of cashews, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds and pecans. Quote \| Reply \| Report

Here's a fairly flexible recipe, without knowing really what you are looking for.

Crunchy Granola

6 cups rolled oats -- (not quick-cooking or instant)
2 cups mixed nuts -- and seeds: sunflower seedssesame seeds, chopped walnuts, pecans, almonds or cashews
1 cup coconut flakes -- unsweetened (optional)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon -- or to taste
1 Dash salt
1/2 cup honey -- or maple syrup, to taste (1/2 to 1)
1 cup raisins -- or chopped dried fruit (optional)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, combine oats, nuts and seeds, coconut, cinnamon, salt and sweetener. Place on a sheet pan and put in oven. Bake for 30 minutes or a little longer, stirring occasionally. Mixture should brown evenly; the browner it gets without burning, the crunchier the granola will be.

Remove pan from oven and add raisins or dried fruit. Cool on a rack, stirring once in a while until granola reaches room temperature. Transfer to a sealed container and store in refrigerator; it will keep indefinitely.

Yield: about 8 cups

NOTES : Into this base of rolled oats you can stir just about any dry ingredient imaginable: other grains, like flakes of rye or wheat; dried fruit; spices, from cinnamon to vanilla to nutmeg to cardamom; orange zest, crystallized ginger, peanut butter, even chocolate chips.
