Granola


Granola

6 cups rolled oats
1 1/2 cups pecans
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
3 oz. canola oil
3 oz. honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Ahead of time:

Preheat oven to 300 F. Spray a 9x12 baking dish with cooking spray.

Mix together the oats, pecans, brown sugar, salt, and cinnamon in a large bowl. In a microwaveable measuring cup, warm the oil and honey for about a minute -- this will help the liquids to mix evenly with the oats. Add the vanilla extract to the warm honey, and stir it into the oats.

Spread the granola evenly in the prepared dish, and bake for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Let cool and store in a plastic container or resealable plastic bag.
